“Even in a formal dining room you don’t want to be ponderous or gloomy. Eating is really one of your indoor sports. You play three times a day, and it’s well worthwhile to make the game as pleasant as possible.” –Dorothy Draper, Entertaining Is Fun!

One of my girlfriends is updating her dining room and she has decided on a round dining table because they entertain quite a bit. Over the years, I’ve figured out that I prefer a round dining table for entertaining family and friends as well. It just feels like the conversations flow more smoothly when everyone can see everyone else.

I’ve learned over the years that if I, or one of my girlfriends are in need of something, then usually someone else is as well, so I am posting the fruits of our eclectic and inspirational research to complete the sharing circle. Happy Monday!
