    I feel like I am at the beach with all of your beachy tables and recipes. All of your recipes sounds scrumptious and any one of those drinks fits the bill for veranda grilling too, especially in this heat. Ribs for us this weekend while we hopefully finish up our house maintenance project next week. Love all the pics, especially the All American Memorial Day Celebration boat pic……..Love the beach during a holiday celebration!………

    • Oh thank you Emily! I know it’s hot as blazes up there~ it’s hot here but there’s a wonderful breeze and the pool is keeping everyone cool…the boat traffic is insane, I’ve never seen so many boats! I hope you and Jim can relax and enjoy your ribs!

    Your table decorations and recipes look so colorful! Yum! ⛱🌞 Looks like the place to be this Memorial Day! 👍 We are at the lake but it is windy and cold…and raining. We are hoping for sun tomorrow!! 🌞

    • Oh no! I guess we are diagonally opposite in the US, and the weather is opposite too, we are sunny and in high 80s, I hope the sun comes out for you! 🇺🇸

  11. Nancy says:

    Wow Jenna… I need to say it again… Wow!!

    Everything is superb and quite festive!

    And I really enjoyed the Sand Dollar Treats!

    I’ll be sitting at one of those tablescapes waiting for a fabulous libation. 😊

    Happy Memorial Day!

  13. Your table and decor is so festive and so is the food, but what I adore most is your seascape watercolor!

  14. Miz Helen says:

    Your tables are so inviting and ready for the summer fun! Your area looked like our dock on the first weekend of summer, packed with boats and folks! Hope you are having a good week and thanks so much for sharing with us at Full Plate Thursday!
