Arabian Nights Valentine's Dinner Party

I had such a wonderful time preparing for my annual Valentine's dinner party for 2012. I got a bit scared with the menu not knowing if my guests would enjoy some of the Middle Eastern flavors, but everyone loved it and even had seconds. Loved working on desserts. As my guests arrived they were directed to the appetizer table where I had several types of hummus Babaganoush, taboulie, pita chips, etc. We had some crazy arab props and we took crazy pictures. They all came dressed with a Middle Eastern feel. I really enjoyed having all my crazy friends over and I dare say that I think they had fun too.
