Perhaps I am too rigid in my table setting ways :) And yes, I did see todays post and had a little chuckle at the "correctness" in silverware placement. Love, love, love your blog. Have been to Seattle twice (sister-in-law lives in Olympia) and am anxious to return. Will make sure I get to spend lots of time in your shops. Suzie Hi Ted,

Thanks for your reply. Perhaps I am too rigid in my table setting ways :) And yes, I did see todays post and had a little chuckle at the “correctness” in silverware placement. Love, love, love your blog. Have been to Seattle twice (sister-in-law lives in Olympia) and am anxious to return. Will make sure I get to spend lots of time in your shops.

Thank you for posting a comment. I just have never been one to follow most conventional rules. I generally set the table trying to balance things, and if I feel like the napkin is quite big or has a pattern I want guest to see, I place the fork next to the knife on the right side. In my book that I am currently working on, I stress how important it is to mix it up when setting a table, to mix & match, to add objects that you like, and to not let all the "rules" about setting a table hold one back. Check out the post from today, as I have the fork on the left side, as it does not compete with the napkin. Merci for reading the blog. Happy Monday! Ted Hi Suzie. Thank you for posting a comment.
