This year was my turn to host the annual Easter brunch for the Lady’s Book Club. Whoever hosts the brunch does not have to prepare the main food courses. I only have to decorate the table and prepare fresh fruit and drinks, which is nice. Everyone else brings the food.
During the holidays things tend to get so busy and rushed. Do you feel like you never stop and “enjoy” the holidays? I do for sure. Each year I try to hold a simple luncheon to get together with a few friends. It seems so nice to be able to slow down a bit and just enjoy the season.
I was the chairman for the refreshment committee for our October Garden Club meeting. Karla being who Karla is I decided to put together a tablescape and make it a little special for the ladies. Why not, right?
January 6th is the birthday of Sherlock Holmes so I decided to create a tablescape in his honor.I am a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes. I am especially fond of the newest Sherlock and Watson series the BBC puts out. They are so well written and they bring the traditional characters alive, but with a modern twist. At the end of each season it leaves you wanting more.
So happy! I won First Place in the Flowers Show with my mantel arrangement! The judges comments were “magnificent in every aspect.” I was so surprised to win First Place as there were so many beautiful entries!
