While spending more time than usual at home – no traveling, meetings or gatherings, I have re-organized a lot of stuff! I have planned for many years to have an Out of Africa party and instead of waiting until the day before to plan the table, I got out the options and pulled them together! With my picture records, the final set up will be easy. My options all have fabrics obtained in Africa. The black and gold rimmed plates are very versatile. The centerpieces vary but accessories plus floral additions make it personal. Guests always feel more special when they know you have been working hard to entertain them. Since we’re not going out, why not have a few socially distanced, masked friends over to look at travel pictures of places you have in common – with lunch or dinner included! Food? Take out, cook in or gather around the grill!
