Dinner For Perverts
or The Candle Salad, Finally 🕯️
July 21, 2023
My goodbye dinner party had a theme… a theme that had been discussed through many years of friendship. A perverted dinner party! So I dressed for the nines unsure of what phallic foods would be waiting for me.
Feeling the love
You can’t go wrong with potatoes… or er “poon”tatoes
A housemade nut cheese… it didn’t even need a pun!
Penile peppers
I mean, come on
Potato chips looking like poontato chips
Furious Vulvas from Lagusta’s Luscious
Weinies in a blanket
Ball-centric
The signature drink… The Pop My Cherry
But here is the star of the show… The earliest reference to the Candle Salad in the hosting and entertaining world was 1916. Later, in the 1920’s, it was a holiday dinner staple. Finally it moved into children’s cookbooks, billed as a way to get kids to eat their fruit. Flash forward 100 years and it became a bookmarked “wannado” in this cheeky, imaginary themed dinner party. And because actionizing ideas is one of my love languages, I was happily indulged by those friends. We giggled out the construction of these mighty beacons of maraschino light.
Some pictures before I go… ❤️❤️❤️
