Pin Your Dream Dinner Party and Win!

Lately, we've fallen in love with the image-driven social media site Pinterest — we use it as a creative kick-start, to figure out what's for dinner, and to get inspired for our own projects. Now we'd like to turn the spotlight on your creativity: show us your SAVEUR-inspired dinner party pinboards, and we'll send each of our three favorites SAVEUR tote bags filled with some of the best cookbooks of the year. On top of that, our very favorite pinboard will be the inspiration for an upcoming SAVEUR Dinner Party story and newsletter — reaching thousands of home cooks around the world who will turn your idea for a fabulous get-together into reality.
What you need to do
- Be sure you follow SAVEUR on Pinterest.
- Create a new Pinterest board entitled The SAVEUR Dinner Party.
- Fill that board with at least 10 pins (feel free to add more!). Of those 10 pins, at least 3 of them must be recipes from Saveur.com.
- All the pins (even those not from Saveur.com) must have a caption explaining the pin's relation to the party. Is it the appetizer? The entree? Atmosphere? A playlist? Tabletop decor? Color inspiration?
- All the pins (even those not from Saveur.com) must be hashtagged with both #saveur and #dinnerparty.
- Once your party pinboard is complete, enter the contest by posting a link to it in the comments section of our contest announcement pin on Pinterest.
Note: You must be a member of Pinterest.com to enter, and you must be following SAVEUR's Pinterest pages. If you do not have a Pinterest account, you can sign up for one here.

Discover an unseasonably warm spring evening, fragrant with a hint of sweet peas, sounding like your favorite chic-flick and begin with a Flamingo or a Classic Martini with lemon and asparagus and tomato appetizers. Then join others at the table and sip on a cool cup of pea and basil soup. Cleanse the palette with a melon sorbet and await an amazing steak paired with a glass of Apothic Red, my favorite red,flavorful pasta with rapini,smooth goat cheese and a splash of lemon. While the deliciousness settles, share a few encouraging words and a toast to the chef refresh your palatte with a lemoncello. As the coolness of the spring evening sets in, prepare for a rich chocolate caramel tart and espresso. Enjoy!
