About Dressing the Table
Laying a Thanksgiving table has a particular magic, smoothing the cloth, setting each charger just so, and tucking sprigs of bittersweet among the gourds and acorns down the center. The good china comes down from the high shelf, the tapers slide into their holders, and the copper pitcher catches the candlelight like a small warm sun. By the time the gravy boat makes its way around the table, every seat feels like the best seat in the house.
