gather around the table

There is nothing more special than gathering around the table with loved ones; sharing hand crafted food & engaging conversation. We should celebrate how grateful we are do this. Recently I’ve been acknowledging the ordinary kitchen table, and the time spent there everyday.

Please share today how you gather around the table, what food you’re sharing, how you decorate and what gathering around food means to you.

I'd say that The indelible mark my Italian upbringing left on me is the appreciation of gathering around a table to share a homemade meal and a glass (or two...;) ) of wine. Dining is a social event and, to me, sharing food with my loved ones is one of the most valuable pleasures of life. I am a decent cook, and my favorite dishes are easy-but-surprising appetizers... like asparagus wrapped in prosciutto!

Mmmm, just makes me want to tuck in. We've recently been gathering around the rug in our conservatory, makes a great picnic area when the weather isn't being too kind.
