Not Bloggorhea

Happy Sunday.  Sorry I missed Bloggorhea yesterday.  It will return next weekend (after I spend the morning camped out to be the first personn into H&M for the new Jimmy Choo line).  This weekend I was just too preoccupied with getting our home ready for the holidays to devote an adequate amount of time to web surfing.  Next to a roasting pan, the most crucial element to hosting a successful Thanksgiving dinner is owning a table.  We sold our old dining room table along with our old condo and so just last week I insisted that we get a new one.  Its BEAUTIFUL. Its the Hicks Table from West Elm, only we got ours on Craig’s List for far less.  The only problem with our beautiful bargain find is that plates sound like they are crashing down onto it no matter how gingerly we place them on the table.  So now I feel that we have to have placemats before Thanksgiving.  I love Chilwich placemats but everyone we know has them so I feel compelled to do something different.  So I found these new Dwell placemats that I think could be perfect.  A set of 4 is $24.  They have a certain KWID quality that I really like and they have coordinating cocktail napkins!  And nothing says “please ignore the fact that we don’t own a sofa” quite like coordinating cocktail napkins!
