Another successful Thanksgiving dinner is now behind us. I am always so grateful to see the same faces every year along with some new ones. What a treasure are family and friends.
It was turkeys to the max this year with the centerpiece, dinnerware, and my new Williams-Sonoma tablecloth all featuring Tom Turkey. |
I've been hosting the Thanksgiving dinner now for 20 years. Every year I add something new, and relish things from the past. This little Fitz & Floyd water pitcher is one of my favorite things. |
More Fitz & Floyd in this whimsical set of salt and pepper shakers. |
These little turkey votives add a bit of unexpected fun. |

Each diner went home with a foil-wrapped chocolate turkey from the Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate Company. |
Vichyssoise Shooters The Zucchini Vichyssoise recipe is from Ina Garten's Barefoot in Paris Cookbook and can also be found here . I topped each one with a single homemade crouton and a flat-leafed parsley leaf from my garden. The shooter (mini cordial) glasses are a part of the Pier One Tasting Party collection and can be found in your local Pier One and seen online here. |

This table is EXQUISITE!! I LOVE your "guest of honor" in the center of the table...he's gorgeous! I love your candles and looked like made for some that color-to no avail. Your navy napkins are an unexpected but beautiful touch.
ReplyDeleteThis really is beautiful and I'm sure was appreciated by all. Sounds like you had a wonderful Thanksgiving day.
(BTW-I went to the countdown site for a Christmas one of my own...thanks for sharing that!!!)
Beautiful table. I love your giant turkey in the middle. Love Johnson Bros. I just picked up my first piece of His Majesty this fall at HomeGoods.
