ENTERTAINED: BRUNCH WITH FRIENDS


lovely image by Roséline Lohr of {this is glamorous}
I was delighted by Cortney's quote above, when reading her wonderful interview on the latest Matchbook issue. I identify and agree with every word, and I cannot wait for the next opportunity to gather and celebrate. This coming weekend, we have invited good friends over for brunch and I am having a great time planning little details for food and decor, including a mini version of my favorite fluffy ricotta pancakes inspired by this lovely image, and other fun mini versions of our brunch favorites. A mimosa bar will not be amiss, and flowers are a must atop the table and drink station. Usually a place setting is worked into the equation by re-purposing beautiful materials used in past occasions and many details are added as last minute inspirations while setting everything up. How about you? Do you enjoy entertaining?
