An Advent by Candlelight hostess reserves a table, invites 5-7 of her closest female friends, brings a treat for the dessert buffet and decorates her table. Her guests can help by baking a treat instead! Don’t want to be a hostess but would love to join us? Register as an individual and you'll have a spot at Katie's table.
