This week, the Times mourns the death of the dinner party and, with it, the era of "great hostesses" who curated tables of fabulous people for civilized evenings above the fray of icky restaurantgoers. (Most of whom appear to have had paid help to do the actual hostessing parts.) According to them, the dinner party is dying because people are no longer interested in sustaining face-to-face conversation with small groups of people, what with cell phones and social media. Plus, it's too hard to plan a menu with everyone's fake allergies and dietary restrictions. Both true! And yet, when you think about it, there are so many other, better reasons not to have a dinner party.
