This Week’s Menu | Spring Dinner Party | Spring Prosciutto & Peas Pasta, Skillet Lemon Chicken, Shrimp Scampi

Over the weekend we hosted my family for dinner, so I took some time in the morning to set a comfy, springy table.

I pulled out my Wheat Wreath Napkins that have a warm, gold color that look great for spring – especially with the purple and white hyacinth.  I paired them with a rustic natural and cream linen cloth (from a few seasons ago).  It is great to pull out old favorites – sometimes I get so caught up in the current season’s products, that I forget to use favorites from seasons past.  But, I know many of you have these same linens, too, so I think it is great to show how they can mix and match and look fresh, again.

And someone sneaking a chunk of baguette – and walking through the frame to show me!

Here is the menu, I’ll write another post at some point with menu and recipes.  I recreated the RL Salad we had over the summer at the RL Restaurant in Chicago – everyone loved it.

**One note for the store : Tomorrow, I’ll be restocking some favorites that sold out too quickly in the Spring Collection.  I’ll send a separate email reminder later today.  

Now, onto the week ahead.  Here is what we’ll be having for dinner : 

Spring Pasta

It is still raining here, so comfort food is sticking around for a while.  This is a Springy Pasta that has lots of comfort and is a favorite for everyone.

Barefoot Contessa’s Skillet Roasted Chicken served with Wilted Lettuce & French Potato Salad (below).
