Progressive Dinner

Last night, we had a progressive dinner with some friends. The premise of a progressive dinner is that each couple hosts one course before moving on to the next house. We decided that only planning/cooking/hosting one course made it very easy for each of us to prepare.

We had a small group last night (which worked out perfectly!). It was us, Ben and Katie and our friends AJ and Jamie.
We hosted appetizers at our house...

We had a roast...it was delicious!

We forgot to take a "before" picture


It was a gorgeous night so we were able to eat out in Ben and Katie's screened-in porch


And AJ and Jamie made dessert...

Amazing flourless chocolate cake (I didn't use a flash and the picture does not do it justice)
Hanging out, enjoying dessert
The whole gang!

I'm assuming the ketchup was out for Ryan! :) Sounds like a lot of fun and the food looks great...it's making me hungry!
