Lidy,
I, just love, love, love your attention to detail and your style! Your flower arrangements are always so beautiful, and I think the paper box tied with the vintage ribbon is such a nice detail -great idea. Think I will make them too. I also like to make list’s and plan out all my serving pieces sure makes things easier the day of your event. Please enter me into the drawing.
Thanks, Denise

We do family style dinners for other holidays, but for Easter, it’s a middle of the day meal with so many people that having the buffet set up in the kitchen, and the tables set up outside is the way to go! Especially since there are so many little ones hopping around the garden. There is a crafts table for the children {and an occasional inspired adult!} and then the egg hunt, all in our garden….so it’s a very casual affair.
Happy Easter!

So interesting. In my family, the Americans go for buffets, but in France, they either serve family-style at the table (passing dishes) or serve plated dishes. People rarely get up from the table. I prefer family-style so I can avoid anything I don’t particularly like without leaving it on my plate (every Christmas, my in-laws give me a huge hunk of deer meat that I don’t touch, nor do I eat the cream-covered potatoes, but that leaves only the single stem of vegetable, which nobody else eats, but which I would have gobbled up given half a chance).

I loved the post, it’s just what a scattered person like me needs. Tell me what to do in black and white and give me the pictures, I’m good at following directions. I just may be able to pull this off!

Ginger, without my lists I’d be lost! They actually free up my mind so much that I make a list each time I entertain. I think most of us do that, although i do have a few friends who don’t. Don’t know how they do it, I’d be frazzled.
