Holiday treats are always appreciated this time of year.  I love to serve up something fun, especially when it can be outdoors…even in winter!  You can make wonderful memories with family or friends by treating them to something unexpected.  Bundle up, grab some blankets and try serving some Christmas s’mores in your backyard!  It doesn’t have to be a grand setup either.  A few simple edibles, something to sip, and a fire for roasting is all you need!  Spread the joy and treat your peeps…

A Casual Thanksgiving Table!

A casual Thanksgiving table is the kind I love to sit at!  Holiday meals are always special but you can easily achieve a pretty setup without fancy decorations or fine tableware.  You can eliminate a lot of turkey-day stress by keeping the tabletop simple.  But that never means that your guests won’t think it’s fabulous!  Make it pretty with natural elements, mix-and-match dishes, and lots of love and your feast will be a hit!  A casual table where fine etiquette is not required will always create a relaxed atmosphere.  You might find your friends and family will linger long after the meal has ended.  Conversations around a table can lead to some of the finest memories.  So let’s make the season bright…
