Etiquette Dinner

Last night we had an etiquette dinner. We decided to keep it simple for this time and if they liked it, do a formal one later. 

Menu-

Appetizer- salad

Main course- Manicotti, breadsticks, and green beans

Dessert- cheesecake with topping options

The week before the young women made the manicotti and the dough for the breadsticks and then froze them. The youth were given invitations and asked to r.s.v.p. with one of the young women leaders. We decorated with black and white. I had a classical station through Pandora to play while they ate. The dress was Sunday best.

We started off in the young women's room with basic etiquette. Then we moved into the gym. I was going to have the young men escort the young women and pull out their chairs but we were missing several of our young men. After serving the salads, the youth listened to some dining etiquette. During the main course, the youth were allowed to ask questions.
