But I have often told myself that it's better to be simple and have friends over than make it complicated and *impressive* and never have anyone over. This just proves it. I appreciate the simple beauty of your meal and the wonderful time you must have had. Thanks for the inspiration!<BR/><BR/>-KariKarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15365451665894382492noreply@blogger.com
