Just want to share some pics from our holiday dinner over the weekend…
It was nighttime, so lighting wasn’t ideal…I absolutely despise shooting at night b/c lighting is so poor!
Preparation…
Plates of many little nibbles. Zoey always has to be part of the action!
Loving our clear coffee table. Def. a space maximizer.
My husband made dinner. Pan seared duck (in butter) w/ blueberry sauce and sides of roasted mushrooms, potatoes, shallots, and brussel sprouts.
Our friends were kind enough to bring sparkling cider and a basket of holiday yummies!
Fine food and great company. Can’t ask for more than that!
My little dessert & tea station.
I made some truffles in 4 yummy flavors!
Including green tea…
Zoey tiptoeing for some treats…
So guilty!
Chocolate dipped biscotti.
Uncle Frank created this snowflake latte art.
I enjoyed my desserts w/ tea. It was YUM.
Enjoy your holiday dinner parties!
I enjoyed your photo dinner thanks for sharing it. Zoe is so cute I just wanna hug her! Latte snowflake=nice touch.
I love the lighting! It makes the scenes look very festive, like everything is glowing by candlelight!
Your photographs are beautiful
It all looks great. Especially the centerpiece
Wow! I didn’t know you could have duck with blueberry sauce! I didn’t know you could have any meat with blueberry sauce! And all the pictures look so warm and wintery! Love your tea station. The branches with pearl-like balls were soo pretty~
The pictures are simply awesome!
Your menu sounds delicious and you are quite the hostess!
So simple and sparkly. I love it.
I was about to go to bed and than i came across this beautiful blog post…wow is all i can say. The pictures are so heart warming. And that dessert! Mmm
Thank you so much Luchessa! Have a great weekend! Best, Kellie
Pish posh – that lighting was magical!
And, Martinelli’s is so delicious!
Lighting was perfect for these shots.
Love your pics in this post
It’s so inviting. I want to go to your dinner too
Ha..Thanks Irene!
Plus, I still want to hear more about the duck dish.
These pics were outstanding! Lighting or no lighting, you never take bad pictures.
I love that tea station! What a great idea!! And the dinner looked DELICIOUS. Where did you get those demitasse cups? I’ve been trying to find some like that and haven’t met my match!
Hi Lauren- Those cups (the small ones, right?) they actually came w/ my expresso machine.
Yeah! Those are great!! That’s so nice that they came with it, better luck next time I suppose. Who makes your machine? Maybe they sell them separately?
Beautiful! Inspiriting! No typo there… Thanks for the incredible photos and the heartfelt greetings and inspiring ideas. I’m gonna do the little table with plates underneath and platters on top for dessert-time! Great idea!
What a beautiful tablescape! Dinner looked delightful and so did your little helper!
