You can make friends with salad! Especially if you have this beautiful salad set!

A ceramic salad bowl made by Julia Thiel (food-safe) and sleek salad servers hand-carved in Guatemala.

If you want more than salad, then check out these two cookbooks (both advance copies so there may be small typos):

• Cooking in Real Life by Lidey Heuck - Cooking in Real Life represents the golden middle ground that new and experienced home cooks crave: recipes that are inventive but not overly complicated, that use familiar ingredients but encourage us to do things a little bit differently. They are designed to be low-effort, practical, and high-reward.  
  
  


• Make It Fancy: Cooking at Home With Sad Papi by Brandon Skier - Make it Fancy teaches you how you can cook like a professional chef and elevate meals in a doable way - all while having fun in the kitchen.

Then, when you're ready to eat, set your table with this colorful runner from Concern America.

Bon Appetit
