How do you decorate a winter table? If your home is like mine, Christmas is put away, and there are blank spaces on tabletops and shelves. This is not the case for my friend sweet Janet who can do everything perfectly. Recently she hosted our ADK meeting, and her dining room table was absolutely stunning. I […]
How do you do a cheese board or cheese table? I can not begin to tell you how many times I asked myself that very question – maybe a million times or so. Honestly! What cheeses should I choose? How many kinds of cheese should I use? How do you make it look impressive? I even […]
The Living Stones wanted the retirement reception for Candy to have the feel of a “proper” reception. With this in mind, we decided to walk around with the hors d’oeuvres on trays and serve them to the guests. Each member of the class donned black aprons over their black pants and white or black tops. With […]
The Living Stones Bible Fellowship Class was honored to be asked to host a church-wide reception for Candy Smith our Learn Pastor who is retiring. Every member of the class wanted to be involved with the reception. Their willing spirit and dedication was amazing. I am so proud to be part of this group of […]

Having these dear ones join us in our Christmas celebration is one of my favorite times of the year. All are welcome – family, friends, and friends of family and friends. Friends who gather with us are […]
A highlight of my Christmas each year is when the Grand’s (grand nieces and nephew + my grandchildren) come for our annual Christmas tea. It is a party for the children with the added bonus of getting to visit with my nephews and their sweet wives. A bummer for me this year was that Super […]
The Jeffersons are a group of ladies that have been friends for many many moons, and they enjoy celebrating birthdays and holidays together throughout the year. For our annual Jefferson Christmas Party, we were invited to Mrs. Ralph’s home. (Mrs. Ralph is my friend who channels Ralph Lauren in her decorating style.) Needless to say, […]
A group of special friends fondly known as the Jefferson’s have celebrated birthdays and holidays together for many many years. In November we have two birthdays to celebrate – Frances and Friend BB.
