Set The Table & Set The Mood

Sometimes how you set the table for guests or your family is more important than what you actually serve to eat. 

It’s like sending a fancy invitation, it sets the mood.  

Or, if you send a fun light-hearted invitation, it reflects the tone of the event. 

A beautiful stemmed wine glass, a few candles (unscented of course), a cloth napkin and some collected shells set the mood for an elevated casual dinner. 

This particular evening a few moms from my son’s middle school were joining me.  We enjoyed an easy fare of poppy seed chicken, English peas with mushrooms and French bread.  A simple dinner, but they raved about the evening for weeks. 

Our eyes love a visual feast!
