We noticed this great post from Penny Plastic over the break. She threw another under-$100 dinner party (inspired by this one), to see if she could do better. Go see how it turned out, and if she made budget! Plus some great pantry storage and recipes for light eating below.

Wow, I am incredibly flattered by the shout-out :-)
The article from the NY Times was really fun, but I also thought the food could have been more sophisticated and the decor toned down. We should all be inspired to embrace simple, good entertaining (go Penny!). After all, I find it is usually the people who make the party.
