One of the gals from my Book Club hosted in her home awhile ago. She put together this gorgeous, cobalt blue tablescape for our lunch.
The potted red begonias provided such a great contrast against the vivid color of the cobalt blue.
This woman loves blue & white…(a woman after my own heart)
I’ve had a major crush on these white charger plates ever since I first laid eyes on them at her house years ago – an awesome find at one of her favorite shopping haunts, Home Goods.
I love how she layered the plates with the solid cobalt blue one in the middle…
Another one of her extraordinary finds at Home Goods – these beautiful napkins
HER HUTCH
Who takes the time (besides her) to do this??!! – Change out the décor in her hutch to complement her table theme–

LUNCH IS SERVED
Chicken salad with tomatoes and bacon, and deviled eggs…
And those deviled eggs were to-die-for
She served us each a ginormous, colorful fruit plate on the side…
Yummy brownies with caramel & chocolate sauce drizzled on top for dessert…
THE BOOK
The book we read and discussed was “The Children Act” by Ian McEwan.
We were all in agreement about this book. Sorry to say, we all hated this book. To put it simply, we found the characters to be shallow, unlikeable, and not believable. We also found the storyline to be unconvincing.
