Last week I hosted my Cooking Club here. I set my table using a Lilly Pulitzer theme.
I bought Lilly fabric on eBay and had a runner made. I didn't arrange for my azaleas outside the dining room windows to be in bloom, but they made for a nice touch!
Heirloom tomato salad - beautiful presentation in addition to being delicious
Karey puts the finishing touches on her Cucumber-Avocado Soup
Cooking Club friends serve their plates
I prepared the main course of Southwestern Shrimp and Grits. Quite tasty though not as nice a presentation as the salad
**Notice the box of Lilly kitchen matches at the top of each place setting. Those were my party favors.**
Me with my friend Ellen
Dessert was Blackberry Shortbread Crumble - it was fabulous!
All recipes from from our current cookbook, Peace Meals, by the Junior League of Houston.
