This week is all about dining rooms. Probably the least used room in most houses but still nice to have when you need it. (Also easier to keep nice since you don't use it as much).
I love to throw dinner parties but I haven't in over a year or two. It just is stressful with young children (to me anyway) So It will probably be a good 3-4 years before I pick back up on throwing dinner parties. Dining rooms are one of those rooms that seem like wasted space but are nice to have them when you need them. I remember how much I loved eating Christmas/Thanksgiving dinners in the "formal" dining rooms at both of my grandparents houses growing up. It always seemed like such an event! I think that's where I learned to love to entertain, cook, (and eat!) My grandmothers and my mother were and are all wonderful hostesses and cooks.
So - let's see those dining rooms!!!!!
