Wouldn't my guests feel ultra special to be served that. <br /><br />I made the crochembouche for a party once in a huge tree shape. We had filled them with ice cream. When it came time to serve it, we couldn't get them unstuck! It was hysterical.Jacquelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10074013194838958441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-927889236153598968.post-76964442096001440532010-11-10T08:44:58.567-05:002010-11-10T08:44:58.567-05:00Brilliant ideas and beautiful images, Yvonne!

I thought I had seen it in one of their online catalogs, but now I'm wondering if I just confused that with seeing it on your blog. {although, I thought I had read one of your previous posts that mentioned where you got it, which I can't find now}. I appreciate your help with that! : )Kathy @ Creative Home Expressionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01341667486449125153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-927889236153598968.post-28902885534957912842010-11-09T21:18:21.066-05:002010-11-09T21:18:21.066-05:00Love the use of the dishpan.

Our group is very informal and they don't mind a dishpan full of ice at all. :)<br /><br />Could you tell me where I will find your BEER BREAD recipe? I made it but wanted to link it all back to you. :))<br />xo bjbjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04432398383127199206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-927889236153598968.post-12628786977714388582010-11-09T20:51:06.729-05:002010-11-09T20:51:06.729-05:00I came back to read again and realized I forgot to...I came back to read again and realized I forgot to mention that I LOVE the dishpan idea!!!!

I am trying to get through Rose Bowl next weekend, then will worry about Thanksgiving I guess. I did a dry-run on the table last weeekend, pics posted today. You remind me what I still need to do, so I'd better get a list going. I have always wanted to do croquembouche, maybe now I will try? My local French baker will only make it for a wedding.

I would love to see Belle Inspirations! I've seen Martha make a large croquembouche and it looks so difficult. I'm looking forward to your instructions. And I'm a very big list person--nothing happens here without one and I enjoy seeing ideas from others. Your dishpan idea is great. I often use small square laundry baskets for gathering items for an event, but dishpans would be lighter for some things! Oh, I love the contrast of the dried hydrangea and the shiny acorns in the centerpiece. I can't wait to see more.

I use them all weekend long for all the wonderful leftovers. I absolutely love the weekend after Thanksgiving! It's such a fun time with family and all the festivities that kick off the official Christmas season. I make way more than we can possibly eat for Thanksgiving dinner (served on beautiful china, of course!)- planning for lots of leftovers. Using paper plates makes the cleanup effortless after a day full of shopping and decorating. Target had the cutest square plates with turkeys and matching napkins which state, "I'm stuffed!" Sums it up perfectly, don't you think?!Kathy F.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-927889236153598968.post-1691089074444593612010-11-09T07:29:03.288-05:002010-11-09T07:29:03.288-05:00Hi Yvonne,
