table for two?

For as long as I can remember, I've had this idea that I will someday be the type of person that throws amazing dinner parties. However, I'm halfway through my 24th year and have yet to begin planning one.

Anthropologie's new Tabletop Design Tool makes me think it's probably best I haven't hosted on yet, since my creations were not nearly as lovely as those they made. However, it is an excellent way to practice my table setting skills.

I am not sure what kind of message I'm sending by posting about wine two days in a row, but this one is for a good cause.

Potting Shed Creations has a line called Grow Bottles, which are ex-wine bottles now serving as hydroponic planters.

I think I'd opt for mint. Something doesn't feel right about mixing chives and oregano with my sweet Riesling.
