Christmas passed... I reflect on a perfect, beautiful day.
Morning was hectic as we were in full preparation for our very late Christmas 5pm lunch.Our friends gathered in the kitchen, drinking fabulous Bordeaux Pomerol, while my husband was preparing his famous beef Wellington for 16 of us.
I enjoy arranging flowers and setting tables. I have a different design concept every year, and the table is an extension of the tree, gift wrapping and living room accessorizing.
This year, All is white...
A Bientôt,

Your table setting looks very elegant . White always works.
ReplyDeleteYour table looks stunning and I smiled when you said that you had a late lunch as I had a late dinner with French Boyfriends family Christmas eve hence I started Christmas day a little later than planned.
ReplyDeleteThe 7am walk to the boulangerie was not a highlight of my day but Guy had promised our guests breakfast would be delivered to their door before 8h :-)
Bonne et heureuse année 2014, Leeann
Sublime Francine!!!

ReplyDeleteyou can't go wrong with all white. Even Turkey. Being silly for 2014
Maine is getting a blizzard, not from Dairy Queen. We are getting ready.
