    Oh, yay! A Becky video, cooking for a dinner party! ❤
    ETA: OMG! No disappointment there - that was a fantastic dinner! You planned your flavors so well to be harmonious and to complement each other.
    And your table was so pretty! When you were in the garden, you passed by the cosmos and I thought, "I'd grab those and add them to the eucalyptus - they're just the right size and simplicity" then second guessed myself when you walked on. I was so excited when you ended up with the cosmos! It looked just like I'd imagined it. I should trust my instincts more! Your table looked beautiful with your base of green and cream and the amber votives.
    Sounds like a wonderful group of friends. It's so nice to have a core circle of people you truly relax with and enjoy yourself.

Thank you for sharing your menu recipes and the process of bringing a beautiful and delicious dinner party together for your friends! You are such an inspiration to me to try new things and to just go for it without hesitation. Kudos to Josh for all that he does and for helping you with the clean up!

    Hello from England. One of my daughter in laws started a book club about 10 years ago that turned into a dinner party and has grown from that into a dinner and cocktail night. Once a month they hold their get together and use Bailey's to turn desserts into Wicked desserts. With all the new flavours coming out. Last weekend she got the new Mint chocolate chip one and made adult milkshakes and it is phenomenal. So who ever hosts it has to turn a Baileys into a dessert and a cocktail. My daughter and I have been practicing cocktails we bought one of those machines that mix it up for you. Oh boy I didn't know what day it was never mind what I had drank. I was no good for anything for nearly 40 hours. We went a bit mad. Now next month my other daughter in law is starting her Gin Vodka and Spicy Rum dinner parties. There is something special about having people you love who love food like you do and a bit of fun with the cocktails. I have been very very fortunate in my sons choice of wives we all get on very well and we all watch your channel.

    Hi Becky. I've just started watching and right now you are rendering your bacon. I learned a great hack from Bon Appetite. Cut your bacon up and put it in the pan with a little water. Maybe 2 tblsp or so per pound? I just splash enough in to cover the bottom of the pot, lol. Anyway, the water helps the fat render out more quickly and the bacon just boils in its own fat. You can cook it as crispy as you like in much less time. So, I hope you find this helpful and now I'm going to put you back on play and enjoy the rest of the video! Have a great day. 😊

Regarding forgetting to put the potatoes in the oven, sometimes things like that happen for a reason. It allowed all of you to just chill and catch up( possibly give you more time to brainstorm about future gatherings). Thank you for sharing these videos. I especially loved the ending with the dimming of the lights, saying good night. Well done, Becky. 🥰👏👏👏🥰

    Everything looks so delicious 😋 I loved to do dinner partys with friends back in the day, was so much fun, was quite a bit of work, did enjoy the process of it, stepping out my comfort zone & learnt so many new skills & recipes along the way. Nowadays dont do dinner partys too often all, & when I do I keep it as simple as possible.

    I absolutely love watching you I have learned a lot!!! Watching you use a recipe for inspiration but making the food your own has given me the courage to do it❤️Thank you !!!

    Becky, how special to have your friends over, relaxing, and enjoying a meal you loved creating. I love that you forgot about the potatoes but just went with it. Please don't ever change in that way. I was wondering how you clean your stove grates. Mine really need cleaning but I'm not sure how to do it. Thank you in advance in you have time to answer this.
