Chocolat - French for Chocolate. I adored chocolate from a young age when I had to sneak in the cupboard to find where my mother had hidden the Nestle's Chocolate Chips. Having read about the famous chocolat shoppes in Paris, when I finally got there I was determined to try a chocolate from every Paris shoppe. I invite you to share my adventures in creating, in travel, and in life.

Words to Eat By
"Though never a very good dieter, she'd found a rule of thumb that kept her from blimping out as her metabolism aged - eat what you want, but not all of it. So if she wanted cheesecake, she made cheesecake, had a slice, and took the rest to a friend or someone in her church who needed a pick-me-up."

Oh this is so beautiful and almost makes me believe spring is actually coming. They are still talking about a wintery mix for next week here. The table is just perfect, the food looks amazing. I love the idea of the cheese in the bottom of the soup bowl. I would imagine that you have a great time every month!
ReplyDeleteWe just got back from our daughter's wedding and I ate too much leftover cake and cupcakes. I am trying to avoid heavy sweets until I get those 5 pounds off, but crème brulee almost makes me change my mind.
What a beautiful table Tammy set, and isn't it great that all your friends enjoy tablescaping as much as you do. I'm going to remember this menu the next time I host a luncheon. Everything looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful green table. Love all your bunnies! I gave up desserts for Lent and I ate everything with my eyes. LOL
ReplyDeleteBlessings My Friend,
This is such a pretty table...the centerpiece gives me a lot of ideas! I love the little bowls of candy at each setting. And the food...oh yum! Love everything, especially the creme brulee. I used to stick it under the broiler and there were many mishaps! Ha!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing a beautiful luncheon...wish I has a group of friends and monthly occasion like this! :)
How delightful!
ReplyDeleteI do love a creme brulee. Beautiful table setting. I'm inspired. I still have the warm-for-winter tablecloth on the table.
I love the beautiful plates and that mercury glass centerpiece is amazing. The food looks even better. How fun that you get together with friends.
ReplyDeleteIt's so much fun when everyone contributes to the party, and I love that the next generation was also involved with the Creme Brûlée. The table is so pretty. Thanks for inviting us for a peek. Cherry Kay
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and perfect for a fun get together. I love your flatware!
ReplyDeleteHow Fun, Jacqueline! I ahve beengoing to have friends over for lunch. WE did a luncheon last year for my MomInLaw's birthday and it was so much fun! I will invite you to my luncheon!

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful and very fun table. She really did a great job. The menu sounds wonderful, too.
ReplyDeleteI do hope the spring weather holds...we are having terrible sandstorms out here on the plains of West Texas....:(
How much fun to have a monthly lunch group! My friends aren't that energetic, we just meet at a restaurant! Her table is so cute, and what a great idea to bring the salad already in bowls!

What a lovely setting, Jacqueline! I am sure that you ladies had a wonderful time. Love all of the Springy green color!
ReplyDeleteOh my how fun! Her tablescape looks wonderful and so does the food! What a treat- you guys do it up nice!!
ReplyDeleteWhether from your influence or not, don't you love how friends are finding that creating tables is not only fun but much easier than they might have thought? Good job here for sure.
ReplyDeleteLovely! The green and white color scheme is so pretty and fresh...delightful table.
ReplyDeleteHow much fun to get together with friends to share your love of good food and pretty tablescapes! The food looks delicious, and love the spring touches on the table, esp. the bunnies!
ReplyDeleteWhat great friends!! It sounds like a wonderful time! The table looks gorgeous and the food just as fabulous. It's great to hear the daughters are sharing in the fun too.
ReplyDeleteSounds wonderful and so sweet to have so much in common with your friends. Also to have their daughters so talented. I am smacking my lips thinking of the Creme Brulee.
ReplyDeleteWould love to have the recipe for the lasagne soup.
Darling tablescape.
Thank you for sharing your friend's table, Jacqueline, and the wonderful pictures of the fabulous luncheon. What a treat to get together with dear friends.
ReplyDeleteHow nice your friends have become tablescapers. I love that! She did an amazing job and the table is full of spring touches. Dear friends, a great meal and pretty surroundings are the best.
ReplyDeleteSo when will we see Tammy out there on the blog circuit? She did an exceptional job with this table!!! It's terrific for Spring! And Anette's daughters have a real talent going on in the kitchen!
ReplyDeleteThe flatware is so, so pretty!!! I would love to add this to my repertoire!!!
I have the marigold Pier 1 plates, but I love these green ones, too! They really could work pretty much year-round, but she has them matched up to a tee for Springtime!
