orange is the new white
August 16, 2017
I have to share this pretty table with you! My girlfriend Norma designed this table setting for a dinner party for 12 to celebrate her husband's birthday--and also to celebrate her brother and sister-in-law visiting from Australia. It was a feast for the eyes with leopard print placemats, orange chargers, pink and yellow napkins, and tiny teal bud vases. It was also a feast for the tummy. During the cocktail hour we nibbled on tiny crab cakes, then sat at the table for a first course of caprese salad. The entree was citrus chicken and summer squash. All the vegetables were from their own vegetable garden. Dessert was strawberries and cream. I love it when the table is every bit as delicious as the food served on it!
