A Scape with a Red Flower

It isn't always necessary to play around with serious flower decorations to garner attention. Bringing a simple flower arrangement to the table is easy and can be very attractive at times. 

Garden bloomed flowers or  even wild flowers of bright colors can be stunning and really stand out rather than pastel displays.

In tropical or in hot countries like ours, because of the the light being so intense, flowers with strong colors are used in flower arrangements

I have used a single stem red bird of paradise flower to adorn this Spaghetti table for two. Hope you like my Spaghetti table,  Do enjoy preparing the spagatti too, The recipe is given below... Thank you all..:):)

Shades of Green

This is September, and the month offers its own fresh start to many things. Here in India, it is the beginning of festivities and celebrations for the next few coming weeks. These are the days of showers too, and it is truly refreshing & soothing to see the plants and trees after every brief shower. The moist leaves give us an impression that they are happy and smiling and breathing a 'Thank You' for the fresh green look. I love the colour green and as we all know it is one of Mother Natures primary colours. The green stem is honoured and credited to hold every flower of different colours. That's awesome.

I collected the green ware from the racks and putting it together as a teascape was pleasing to the eyes like the happy greenery around us. Sometimes it is wonderful to have tea and treat ourselves amongst a small collection of green plants. M...

From A Coffee Lover to Coffee Lovers

With coffee becoming the new fad, this refreshing anytime beverage wooes us in its many new avatars. A good cup of coffee can really work wonders if you are seeking relaxation after a hard days work or gearing up for the day. A true coffee lover would like to have his cuppa without milk but most Indians prefer it with a dash of milk and some cream on top. Coffee is based on its appeal to ones senses - Smell, Taste, Touch, and Sound. With so many varied ways of brewing coffee where every method leaves behind a unique taste, it is but natural for one to fall in love with this elixir of life. Compliment yourself by having your hot expresso, with baked sandwiches, hot chocolate brownies, donuts, or creamy cheese sandwiches - An awesome combination indeed. Being a avid coffee drinker myself, I m happy to present to you, my round table corner with Egyptian Motif Coffee mugs and a smoked glassware setting. Guests have enjoyed sipping the hot coffee from these beautiful mugs which I purcha...
