Thank you to @NetGalley and @chroniclebooks for allowing me to preview Table & Spreads:
A Go-To Guide for Beautiful Snacks, Intimate Gathering, and Inviting Guests by Shelly
Westerhausen Worcel with Wyatt Worcel. @vegetarianventures
This book caught my eye because my daughter and I have recently become interested in putting
together some boards for appetizers for our last couple of get togethers. I love scrolling through
the ideas on IG. My favorite boards are the ones they put together for a theme.
This is the perfect book for the person who loves to entertain small and large gatherings. The
first half of the book is about planning and organizing for your gathering. Everything you will
need from color coordinating flowers and napkins to stemware to providing appropriate background
music this book has all the information you need. What I really liked about the book is the timeline
for building the spread. It is a step by step outline to being prepared for your guests. The second
half of the book takes some timelines with everything you need from wine pairing to styling your
board to practical suggestions and some amazing recipes. There are some wonderful everyday
party ideas and Holiday ideas. What I liked about this part of the book was the recipes. There are
some new recipes that I have not seen before for dips. The photography is beautiful and I liked the
layout of the book. . It is very easy to follow. Tables & Spreads will be available May 4th, 2021.
