One of my entertaining go-tos are my quick and easy dessert boards! I love dessert but hate baking so this is the perfect solution for me. Everything used is pre-made and was available in the bakery section at my local grocery. I just simply took items out of the package, cut up, and arranged all together on a pretty tray! You really can easily customize this with a variety of different baked goods, desserts, and sweet treats or by doing a certain color-scheme or theme if you need to!

DIY Salad Bar Board for a Crowd | Easy Entertaining Meal
I recently made this salad board for one of our Christmas parties and I’m kind of kicking myself that I hadn’t thought of this sooner! It really is such an easy way to entertain for a crowd and feed a lot of people without a lot of prep! It also works especially well if you have guests with certain food allergies, sensitivities, or preferences because everyone can make their own salad with the ingredients they want. This can also be customized a million different ways with all kinds of different ingredients! Mine leans more towards an Italian salad with the ingredients but there are so many different possibilities for this!

3 Easy Thanksgiving Appetizers with Wilson's Grocery + Meats
No matter the meal, yes even Thanksgiving, y’all know my favorite part is appetizers!

Well I say… those people are no fun (sorry)! I wanted to pull together 3 super easy appetizer options for Thanksgiving that you can serve alone or all together without any fuss, and I promise they will flow perfectly with your Thanksgiving menu! I love the idea of serving these all together for a mini Thanksgiving appetizer board as well. They compliment each other well and each have different savory, tangy, + fragrant flavors.
3 Summer Centerpieces for your Outdoor Entertaining
Today I’ve teamed up with Gordmans to put together 3 different summer centerpieces perfect for all your outdoor entertaining! I love to entertain outside during the summer and one of the keys to a beautiful spread is a pretty centerpiece- whether it be on you dining table or serving table. All 3 of these centerpieces are super quick and easy to put together and every single item I’m using came from my Lexington Gordmans store! Even better, the total of all the items together was less than $150 and these are all items you can use again and again both in your indoor and outdoor decor. All three styles are fun and summery but each slightly different: a preppy and colorful ginger jar arrangement, a simple, neutral boho arrangement, and a natural, beachy arrangement.
