Pinterest Dinner!

On Friday night, we had a co-worker and his family over for dinner.  His wife has a great personality and their son is adorable!  I think Jason was unsure at first, but he eventually gave in to my crazy ideas.  We both enjoy hosting and meeting new people.  Makes perfect sense to invite someone over who moved here recently.  Right??
Anyway, I waited until Friday afternoon to finalize dinner.  I knew I wanted to make something good (but then again, who doesn't want to make something good for dinner?!? ha!).  I searched pinterest and ended up searching through the people I follow "food" boards for some extra ideas. 
First thing I found was this Oreo pudding pokey cake thingy
It was delicious!  And super easy!  I used devil food cake instead of dark chocolate cause that's what I had on hand. :)  I followed the directions to the tee.

I also had chocolate covered strawberries.  A friend told me about using a straw to cut the top off and it worked AMAZING as well.  I already purchased more strawberries to dip in chocolate. 

And finally, the main course.  I knew I wanted a vegetable with a meat (I completely forgot about it being Friday and not having meat - so FAIL!).  But the honey mustard crusted chicken turned out great!  The semi-home made honey mustard was great!
