Welcome to my Tablescape Thursday
I hope everyone has enjoyed the most
amazing Christmas with family and friends and I look forward to the welcoming the New Year.
Please join me for this fun adventure in tablescaping hosted by the lovely
Susan at Between Naps on the Porch.
Today I am sharing a dinner hosted by my daughter and son in law the Saturday
before Christmas. Kristi and I decided that since
we work so hard preparing our homes for Christmas we
should extend the festivities and schedule some pre Christmas fun. I am
still not sure that was a great idea. It was a very busy holiday...but tons of fun.
Kristi set a lovely table. She started with a pretty green velvet swirl
tablecloth and added some fun elements.
Her theme was rustic elegance and I think she captured that feel.
A gold reindeer candleholder was center stage, with Santa looking on.
She incorporated her green goblets, everyday cream dishes on wooden chargers,
an white napkins with a snowflake pattern.
Kristi is also an excellent cook. We enjoyed:
Chicken Kiev

Roasted Aspargus
A beautiful salad
and french Bread

For dessert she made us a Giada ..choc brie pannini. very low cal
Don't you just love the way gold candles look?
Thank you Kristi for the delicious meal, and thanks Tim for being a great Host.
Did I mention we also had Oprah's pomagranate martinis?
