What a wonderful idea for a thread!!
I would like to do a feast all in decorated food (the soilettes (sp?))
we have been going over has given me some wonderful ideas.
I would also like to do a full middle eastern (sitting on pillows,
eating with fingers, drummers in the background, you get the idea.
