April Cornell is fab and I must get a copy of that terrific book. India has amazing fabrics but I truly enjoy the cuisine. My husband works with a lot of physicians from India in the Houston market. They have introduced us to chicken 65 (yummy).

I remember them from your prior tablescape (maybe the first of yours I read) and how impressed I was with your style from that moment on.
