The simple pleasures of home shine brighter
when the spirit of God intertwines our hearts
with His gentle Joy.

Romantic Steak Dinner. . .

Finally,
the temperatures here on the Prairie are in the double digits!
After 34 consecutive days of triple digits On Crooked Creek, this calls for celebration!!! 




A Romantic Steak Dinner is on the menu tonight!



Candlelight will set the ambiance for a romantic dinner for two!



Muted Autumnal hues create a mystical theme!



Scalloped place mat atop a freshly ironed linen tablecloth combined with stacked duo ~hued dinnerware provides an
air of romance!



Low bisque pottery filled with hydrangea and golden orbs. A
perfect centerpiece for eye contact.









Beaded organza ties drape each chair finished with an elegant bow!










The romantic mood cascades into the surroundings of this setting!





Long over ~due,
On Crooked Creek,
a Romantic Steak Dinner for two!





Until next time. . .

Hey dear Pat! You're good at making romantic tables so pretty too! I love the centerpiece for "EYE CONTACT"..hubby always says: "you're staring at me too long, is there something you want?", lol..or bought, or want to buy?, heheheheheeehhhee..not really, I just do this from time to time and stare at his beautiful green eyes! Beautiful table with bows and all, so romantic for sure! The menu sounds yummy too. Enjoy your week.

A beautiful table . . . perfect for a steak dinner for two! And aren't you grateful for the single digits -- triple digits went on for far too long!

Pat you definitely did have something to celebrate! WE too had a cooler day yesterday allowing me to be out on the porch to work rather than in my office! Your table looks pretty and special --how good it is to make the most of these things in our lives we are grateful for--even good weather!

Bet the steak dinner tasted especially good on such a beautiful table.
It's been cooler this weekend here, too. THANK GOODNESS. :)

We had a steak dinner..but it was not romantic! I just don't seem to take the time or the energy to do so anymore. Good for you! Beautiful table!

Pretty table, and I agree, cooler weather is worth celebrating.

Your table looks very inviting. I like the addition of the beaded ties on the chairs. I'm looking for some small wreaths to hang on the back of our dining room chairs for fall.

I am in love with those placemats and napkins! The plates certainly bring out the colors in them. And I do need to remember your centerpiece. Congrats on <100!! We celebrated, too. Blessings, xo marlis

So glad you have finally dipped into tolerable weather. I am not sure that I have seen a warmer summer in Ohio either. Your table is wonderful - so romantic. I hope you and your special someone enjoyed your steak dinner!
