For some reason, the pictures of the food this month are turned sideways. They are correct in my picture file, and when I upload them to the blog they are correct at first and then turn sideways. I can't figure this out so they are going on as is.
Our dinner group in October was hosted by Jim and Jaymie Utley. The theme was Mexican food, and who doesn't like Mexican food? Jaymie outdid herself with the table decorations and food. I would say Jim helped, but I am not sure of that. I think he was just the host with the most.

The Children's Smaller Table
The flowers and runner were just the thing to introduce Autumn.
The colors, candles, beautiful glassware and place matts really dressed up the table.
The theme was carried through with leaf shaped dishes
The best flan you have ever tasted made by Scott and Lori. I forgot to take a picture of the caramel sauce that went over the top, but trust me, we all wanted to lick the bowl when it was empty.
Cream cheese 3 berry ( strawberry, raspberry and blackbeery) chipoltle dip with blue corn chips made by Wayne
