New Year’s Eve Dinner

I enjoy having family or friends over & it doesn’t take a lot to make a lovely table scape. A simple meal can take on a different look when served with your better pieces. I’m in between Christmas & New Year’s but I still incorporated a winter theme by using the white/black colors.

Most everything I already had so I just picked up a few ornaments from Walmart with their 50% after Christmas sale to make the table arrangement. I don’t like taller pieces, such as high flower bouquets, that block your view of your table guests so incorporating smaller items in a contained area works perfect. I used a red plate, that I already had, which added a splash of color to the table. My menu is geared towards the New Year – a hearty beef dish with carrots & potatoes, some greens & black eyed pea cakes, cornbread pone & deviled eggs. I do not want to take any chances on my good luck in 2023. Happy New Year!
