    Host Jeanne Benedict helps the party hosts create a uniquely themed Native American Dinner Party.

    In this episode host Jeanne Benedict plays off Bob's (the party host) Native American roots to create a uniquely themed dinner party for his Gourmet Club. Guests will receive a dream catcher invitation. Since this is a Gourmet Club, guests will be seated at a formal dinner table, but the food will be served from a buffet. The main entree is cornmeal crusted trout and chicken. Native American fry bread pizzas and other Native American inspired dishes are served. Both the dining and buffet tables will be accented with matching hand-painted table runners that show off a Native American design. After dinner guests will be able to make their own dream catchers at a dream-catcher-making station.

    This party is rated 3 on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the most difficult, and is geared toward the skills of a frequent entertainer.
