Party Preview

Preparing the night before always makes a dinner party more relaxed. Last night, I dressed the pork loins in garlic and oregano, made a cilantro pepitas salad dressing, stuffed peppers with cheese, baked brownies, peeled jicama and set the table.

Unfortunately, none of my standby damask tablecloths work with my wedding china. So I went with vintage embroidered placemats instead. This is also the debut of my new gorgeous silverware. Yes, that is a little glass-lined salt cellar with matching tiny spoon. I’m in heaven!
