I love the Stuff White People Like blog. (It is a bit irreverent, so don’t read it if you are super sensitive.) The two posts that seem to pertain to me most at this moment are #37 Renovations and #90 Dinner Parties. I really do dream about restoring an old home to its former glory, and I am currently planning some awesome dinner parties. (Once my kitchen is finished, of course.)

From #90 Dinner Parties:

Hosts are expected to deliver a magical evening. The food must be home made with fresh, organic ingredients, the music must be just right (ambient, new, but not too loud), and the decorations inside the house should be subtle but elegant. The ultimate goal is to do a better job than the couple at the last dinner party while attempting to make everyone jealous and sort of dislike you.
