Often, we take a picture of the table set up for that particular party and use that picture on the menu. We do that often especially when it is out of town company -- the menu is a souvenir but the picture makes it even more so
I entertained friends for lunch during our town's All School Reunion. A girl who lived at Linderhof when she was in high school and six of her friends. It was fun for her to be back here . . . and it was fun for me to have them.
The menu for that luncheon -- which turned out more pink because I was running out of my color cartridge. But I liked the pink, and so each guest had a menu with a "pink" picture of the table that day.
The plate with the trio of salads.
And dessert! Served on a plate with pink flowers!
Menus -- a tradition at Linderhof whenever we have guests!
It's Saturday and time for Pink Saturday -- so please join Beverly at How Sweet the Sound -- for this Saturday besides Pink -- there may be red, white and blue -- it is the Fourth Weekend after all!

I think it's a marvelous tradition and so easy to do with computers and printers. Did you do this in some fashion before you could print them at home easily?
Yes, on a typewriter, and photo copied them. Graphics were on a kindergarten level as well!
Oh...my...goodness! That dessert!!!
I think this is a lovely tradition. I'd imagine that it makes keeping a hostess' diary very easy.
am going for the dessert! yummey!.. hope there is some left.. happy 4th & happy PS!
Martha, this is such a great idea. I'm having guests next weekend and I just might try that. These are our cousins from Marysville, Kansas. Thanks for stopping by to see me and have a great holiday!
Blessings, Beth
Lovely Martha- we've done this many times and guests seem to love it. Happy 4th!

I like your takeaway menus! Sounds like you have some fun gatherings! Jacqueline
What a fabulous idea. I know all of your guests think that is so special. I would never have thought of that. Love the idea. Hugs, Marty
Martha, Oh how very special to have as your guest a young woman who once lived at Linderhof. The menu sounds great too. How do you make your Chicken Pasta Salad? Inquiring minds want to know.
