{Table Setting versus Table Scape}

• One of my most popular books is that of Peri Wolfman and Charles Gold: The Perfect Setting. 
• It is a beautiful hardcover with lots of great tips on how to create a perfect setting by using mis-matched pieces of china, silverware and crystal. It opens a world of ideas for anyone and the good thing is that it also gives great recipes as well! 
• If you click the hyperlink above, you will get to a source where it still is available and I can only highly recommend it!

• Forks Knives & Spoons is also by Peri Wolfman and Charles Gold
• The authors were the owners of Wolfman, Gold & Good Company, a New York City tableware store, for nearly 20 years. 
• Wolfman is now in-house director of product development for Williams-Sonoma. 
• Gold is a recognized food and still-life photographer; his work has appeared in House & Garden, Vogue, Gourmet, and other national magazines. 
• Peri Wolfman and Charles Gold live in New York City.

• Southern Lady
• GRACIOUS TABLES
• {THE PERFECT SETTINGS FOR ALL OCCASIONS}
• One of my favorite books!

• Victoria
• AT TABLE
• with FAMILY & FRIENDS
• another favorite

• My all time favorite magazine SOUTHERN ACCENTS also wrote under Gracious Living aboutTable Settings.
• But WHY is it than that so many people follow the sudden hype of using Tablescape instead of the correct term of Table Setting?
• That has puzzled me for quite a while... maybe the following explains it:
• Coins make sound when dropped, but paper bills won’t.
• Lesson: “When your value increases, keep yourself silent and humble.”

• Search on Microsoft's Bing yielded 37,100 results for tablescape

• Search on Microsoft's Bing yielded 286,000,000 for Table Setting

Search on Yahoo yielded 35,300 on tablescape

• Search on Yahoo yielded 619,000,000 on Table Setting

I have done all those searches on August 24th.
Okay, I guess I have done my homework and can rest my case...

{BOATLIFT: A Story of Civic Heroism}

Did any of you know about this story of civic heroism? We were in Germany on the day of 9/11 this year. This video got uploaded on September 7: BOATLIFT, An Untold Tale of 9/11 Resilience. I feel that I have to share, as the media never did bring this out. Tom Hanks narrates the epic story of the 9/11 boatlift that evacuated half a million people from the stricken piers and seawalls of Lower Manhattan. This evacuation in only 9 hours, was one of the largest and fastest in history- far fewer (300,000) were evacuated from Dunkirk, France during WWII.

Produced and directed by Eddie Rosenstein. Eyepop Productions, Inc.

Quote: A hero is a man who does what he can. - Romain Rolland
