A Summer Engagement in Santorini Image by Fifteen Photography
Another week, another whirlwind, and as we bid November farewell, we look to the end of the year for times with family, friends and of course, food. Mr Herringbone and I love entertaining for very different reasons; he is a passionate cook and revels in the opportunity to try new dishes and wow our guests, whereas I can’t resist a tablescape and playing with napery and decorations. It’s all in the presentation! We both of course, enjoy eating said food too, so it’s a win/win situation all round really.
As we launch into the new month, why not take some time to catch up on what you may have missed from our specialty blogs, including some fabulous offers and giveaways for this week. Enjoy!
