The Dinner Party Menu: Foodies’ Night In 08.30.10
Join us Monday, August 30th, for a conversation built upon the blue-print of any successful gathering—the menu. We’ll chat on everything from the inspiration that spills from the cocktail menu to the guidance that the main course lends the entire evening. Bring your notes on buffets, potlucks, sit-downs, and even grill-outs; if it’s a way to serve supper, we’re going to dish on it. Make a date with your fellow foodies at the hottest table in the Twitterverse.

How #fni works:
Late Monday afternoons (4-6pm eastern to be exact) we meet through Twitter. Using the hashtag #FNI we greet each other at the virtual door, and get cozy to talk about whatever food-related topic we are featuring that day. Typically the topic will be determined by the weekly sponsor of #fni. We, at Cooking with Caitlin, compile at least ten questions that serve as the framework of the conversation over the two hours of #fni. Then, the hosts throw out each question at pre-determined times throughout #fni. We hope that YOU will join in the fun-filled-foodie conversation and share your thoughts, recipes, tips, ask questions…and most certainly make new friends! Can’t wait to *see* you there.
Thank you to our partner in #fni, @savvyhost.
