Lunch Outside



If only I had the energy to hold a beautiful Sunday lunch just like this one. I adore the concept of the floor rug on the grass and all of that wonderful upholstered furniture outside...

lunch sounds great, but I think I would have to extend it to living outside permanently if the set up was this fantastic! Have a lovely weekend Anna xx

man, wouldn't that be nice? with a view of the ocean, and the sound of the faint waves tumbling in, and an occasional seagull chirping, and the nice breeze.

Its too perfect!

love this. We have been enjoying a few sundowners under the arbor recently as the British weather is turning unexpectedly clement.

Yes, I love this setting - especially the view.
I have luncheon parties like this in "my head" but can't seem to get them put together. Just tried last month and several of my friends were busy on the "date" I had planned. Can't seem to get it going again......My friend and I both laugh and say we have lots of parties in our head.....but they can't seem to come to life. Too, too busy to do much entertaining.....
Love your blog -
Retha

I love the old wood table! It's so charming. And the photo definitely reminds me of the huge family gatherings we had back when I was younger.
