Under the Tuscan Stars....

Diana's August bunco found us in the yard enjoying a warm August night, lots of food and wonderful company. 
This is the 3rd year we have had bunco
Under the Tuscan Sky...
the California Tuscan Sky that is.

As always it started with the gifts....we had a bit of trouble fitting them into the car.
But we loved them so much
it was worth the sacrifice.


The theme colors were green and purple....kind
of a wine theme.
With the table
set up in the Gazebo we were
delighted when we discovered we were able
to take the flowers from the garden.



and use some of the gifts as lanterns on the table.

As always...Diana's Tuscan style yellow dishes came
out for the party.
(they love a party too)


Menu:

Pine nut and basil Pasta
Eggplant Parmesan
Italian sausage Pizza
Chopped Salad
Chianti


Each box contained a petite four


Cocktails by the pool



Petite fours courtesy of Your Sugar Rush
in keeping with the theme



Lots of food and wine


Oh, I guess I didn't mention Cynthia's garlic bread on the menu.
That is the best garlic bread.


Happy Guests...



and happy cleaning helpers...



Tired puppies


and maybe a little bunco


but definitely prizes.

The winner of the
Bachelorette contest was Diana.
So Peggy had a rose ceremony


always a fun time


with good friends.


Until next year...
