So, my son is headed home for our Easter weekend s So, my son is headed home for our Easter weekend so we can also celebrate his 20th birthday that is coming up next week. I wanted to make us a little Easter treats tray for when we sit down with cocktails to get caught up with him. I am mad about my new Fleur-de-lis Picnic Set from @arthurcourtdesigns (partner) and it was perfect to use for this special occasion! Swipe over to see more details of this gorgeous picnic set (I have linked to it in my profile for your convenience)!

To create this little charcuterie board, I designed it around hard-boiled "Easter" eggs topped off with everything-bagel seasoning. I also featured Wasabi-covered peas, pickles, cucumbers, grapes, salami, blueberry stilton cheese, raisin rosemary crackers, lemon cake, chocolate Easter candy, and a chocolate bunny for some more Easter flair. Finally, I set in a few fern sprigs and the tiny flowers for an added spring touch. This would be great for you to create your own Easter celebration! Happy Good Friday, my dears!!

Hi friends! I am so excited to finally share our E Hi friends! I am so excited to finally share our Easter table for this year (linked in my bio). Easter will look different for us this year because our daughter can't make it home from Montana for Easter bc it is too close to her finals. Insert sad face!! However, I still wanted to create a special table to celebrate our Risen King. One thing I did with this table setting was to create it in a way that we could still utilize this tablescape  after Easter by only removing the small amount of Easter elements. Stop by and check out all of the details!

Thank goodness it is 5 o'clock here and somewhere! Thank goodness it is 5 o'clock here and somewhere! You gotta try my new Mint and Cucumber Infused Vodka Cocktail that is over on the blog (linked in my profile). It would be so refreshing to serve for your Easter brunch, lunch, or dinner! I  #partnered with @koskenkorvavodka to create this new drink with their  gluten-free, vegan, and non-GMO yummy Vodka. Oh, and...it is incredibly smooth just on the rocks!

Friday Favorites – Coffee Table Books on Entertaining and Cooking

Hi there!  As a part of my new Friday Favorites posts, I started a new series a couple of weeks ago on my favorite coffee table books.  I have so many favorites that I decided to break them up into four of my top passions….home design, fashion design, entertaining and cooking, and books for the collector or enthusiast.  If you are stopping by after last week’s post, welcome back!  If you are new to this series, I hope you will enjoy it and stop back in.

This week, I am sharing my top 20 favorite coffee table books that focus on entertaining and cooking.  There are so many talented ladies and gentlemen out there that have given so much of their time and talent by sharing them through their books.

This post contains some affiliate links to help keep this blog up and running.  I only include affiliate links that are pertinent to my topics and designs as well as links that could be helpful.

If you enjoy hosting guests like we do, gathering inspirations from these talented authors is a great way to gain new ideas, themes, planning instructions, recipes, etc.  Not only do they showcase their talents and display stunning images, they make great coffee table books!  Bonus!

As an interior designer for over 25 years, I have incorporated coffee tables in almost every single project for my clients and throughout my home.  They are so versatile and help tell the story of YOU and your passions.  In this picture, they provide a perfect visual foundation to feature my most beloved accessory that I acquired from my late, precious grandmother who passed away recently (at 103 years old!).

There are a few recommendations below from a Dallas friend from my high school that are amazing!  Kimberly Schlegel Whitman and her mother, Myrna Schlegel are renowned entertainers and hostesses.  I thoroughly enjoyed working with the two of them on a couple of fashion show fundraisers that I chaired for our school years ago.  I am so happy to see Kim’s talents highlighted in the pages of her books.  Her most recent book, “Parties Around the Punch Bowl”, just became available a few months ago, so check it out (it is linked below)!

With the exception of some of the newest editions here, I have owned most of these books for quite a long time and still enjoy crawling into one of my sofas and burying myself into their beautiful pages.  I recommend a nice glass of wine as you dive in!

                

        

For the last two weeks, I focused on home design books and fashion design books. Next, I will feature my favorite books for the collector or enthusiast.  To see my last two posts on these subjects, click on this links below…
