Good Morning Darlings!
I am still dreaming of Easter entertaining. We will have a small group of friends over for dinner (when I told Eric we were hosting 20pp, he was a bit surprised. My answer? “It is small compared to 175 for the Christmas Party!”) God bless my husband for putting up with my antics.
Anyhoo, I am still poring over ideas for our special spring soiree. Take a look and see what I’ve found.
Hop to it, Bunnies!

Good Morning Darlings!
When I arrived home from St. Simons yesterday, this precious package was waiting for me. I think this is the best idea for Easter. Especially those of us with no children.
You will love this!

Good Morning Darlings!
Eric and I bought a Flip camera a few weeks ago with the hopes of making some fun videos.
Cooking videos, you naughty children!! lol
I would like to share our first offering. Chef Jeffrey Gardner of South City Kitchen and Food Network’s Chopped, came by to teach me how to cook in a tajine. The tajine was sent to me by our friends at Beka.
And now, without further adieu…

I have decided to add another dimension to the blog and do some cooking videos. It was my extreme pleasure to welcome Chef Jeffrey Gardner from South City Kitchen to our home Sunday for some kitchen fun.
What are we up to?

Good Morning Darlings!
I am so excited for spring to be here. Easter, in particular, when Eric, John and I will be hosting dinner at our house.
To get ready, I have taken large square votive holders, filled them with potting soil and grass seeds and now I wait. The grass-filled votive holders will line our dinner table, enveloping the table in fresh, green grass. But for now, I am tending to my little charges.
Would you like to see what’s inspiring me today?

Good Morning Darlings!
I have a very special treat for you today!! Our guest blogger is none other than the simply charming Mary Kay Andrews, the author of the New York Times bestselling SAVANNAH BREEZE and BLUE CHRISTMAS, (HarperCollins) as well as HISSY FIT, LITTLE BITTY LIES and SAVANNAH BLUES. She and I were discussing the state of the dinner party on Facebook after someone had posted an article saying the art was dead. She and I disagree with the article and I asked if she would like to write a little something for my blog. Mary Kay was so very kind to write this post and I am thrilled to welcome her to Anatomy of a Dinner Party. Please put your hands together for Miss Mary Kay!
You must see what Miss Mary Kay has to say! Come on in!

Good Morning Darlings!
Oh how I love to meet new folks. And the other night at The Big Gay Supper Club, I did just that.
Invited by creator, Rande Head, and held at Rosebud, a restaurant I’ve been dying to try, it was a fun night out.
Lots of fun photos inside.
