Hello and welcome to this week’s edition of Saturdays with Southern Living at HOME! Like many families these days, we are working to be more budget conscious and one way we can do that is by enjoying more family meals at home. I have found that for around the same cost as one family dinner out at a restaurant we can invest in beautiful pottery, iron, or glass! It’s fun and easy to jazz up dinner PLUS it makes the family feel special!
This past week I prepared Artichoke Chicken (thanks for the DELICIOUS and EASY recipe, Sunshine!) in our Gail Pittman Hand Painted Rectangular Casserole dish (color: Provence) nestled in the Two-In-One Iron Stand (both on page 59). I prepared green beans in one of my all-time favorite products, the Tuscan Everyday Baker (page 23). The robin’s egg blue coordinates beautifully with all our painted pottery! Our pottery is the best out there! It is restaurant quality which means it is chip resistant, microwave safe, and oven safe. Another important feature is that it is DISHWASHER SAFE which makes cleanup a cinch!
Another fun way to dress up a regular 9×13 or 8×8 Pyrex casserole dish is to drop it into one of our Clairmont Casserole Caddies (pg 9). The 9×13 size is one of my best sellers and a Southern Living at HOME classic! It also serves the additional function of protecting your table from the hot casserole dish!
I featured this setup a few weeks back but it is worth mentioning again. Imagine the rave reviews from your family and friends when you turn store-bought lemonade into this refreshing treat! Products featured are our Jamestown Tray (pg 9) and Southern Sippers (pg 40). Hurricane featured is retired but similar to Hemingway Hurricane (pg 6). Our large Madeline Hurricane (pg 35) would also be a nice choice!Check out my personal website for online catalog and more information about what we offer. Don’t forget when you spend $29.95 or more this month you can pick up our Cordova Fire Screen for just $39.95 plus shipping and tax (regular price is $149.95). Kimba over at a Soft Place to Land is hosting a blog party this week if you want to get in on the deal!
