Spontaneous Supper Club

I love hosting and cooking for people. What I don't love is the process of finding a date that works for everyone, which tends to be several months out, and then cancelations naturally happen. Plus, I missed the window of being 'in the mood'. So I made invites for the nights I actually feel like cooking to encourage more spontaneous suppers.

No app, no accounts. Every friend gets their own link, and nothing goes out unless I send it.

The ask

Each dinner gets its own look. This one's Brodo, for December. Friends tap the nights that work.

It's on

I pick the night and their link turns into the invite, with a calendar button. The address only shows up for the people who said yes.

The reminder

The question everyone asks, and the one I never know how to answer. So now there's a short list. Pick one and it's yours.

Grazie

After the first supper, everyone got their own album: what we poured, the recipes they asked for, the caviar, and a spot to add their photos.

and then

What came back

The link lands as a little painting with their name on it.

A text thread: the Grazie link preview with the after-dinner painting, then replies: This is awesome!!!!! What a recap! Love your creativity

behind the scenes

My side

One private page for me. A thank-you line written for one person, photos waiting for my OK, and who can make which night.
