I forward the message below at the request of Maria Luisa. The Progressive Dinner has been consistently one of my favorites annual events.
There is always an abundance of good foods and always a melange of old favorites, new twists, comfort foods and exotic, tasty experiments. Walking from home to home, seeing the neighborhood and the houses, realizing another side to volunteering all lead to a delightful mix. And, for the money, it is a good value. It is a night out, where well behaved children are welcome, and there are no hidden charges for parking, baby sitting, tax or tip. I hope to see all of the usual suspects and extend a welcome to any of our many new neighbors. Best!
