Love yourself and the world will love you.
― Amy Leigh Mercree
The dining room has been transformed into a fairy garden this evening.
Flowers are strewn across the long table ― magnolias, anemones, and roses ―
paired with hydrangea-and-peony centerpieces.
Long taper candles flicker over the display, complemented by the remaining sunlight.
A feast sprawls out from one end of the table to the other,
a medley of some of my favorites ― crab cioppino with bright tomatoes and red wine,
garlic bread flecked with parsley, linguine and clams swimming in broth,
seared abalone presented in its opalescent shell, fresh oysters on a bed of ice.
― Kiana Krystle, Dance of the Starlit Sea
