I would invite...

All my friends...especially the ones I rarely see these days.

Considering my obsession with Downton Abby it would be Downton Abby. You could either dress up as a character or in your best turn of the 20th century British best. But I would really like it to be a garden party or high tea. English dinners are not my favorite thing, I faked sick many a night when I was in England. Lunch and tea tend to contain much better tasting foods. 

I would host it...

At the closest thing to Highclere Castle in the south...any respectable Plantation home. But since I adore the house we were married at let's go with Twin Oaks.

We would eat...


Scones, trifle, mini quiche, sausage plait, roast beef & horseradish sarnies, salmon and cucumber sarnies, petite fours, victoria sponge cake, Scotch eggs, Pea and Mint Soup, Coronation Chicken Salad, Jelly & Custard...and the British list goes on and on.
