Her home is relaxing and inviting.
And everything she does is so beautifully presented. From the sambousa with tamarind sauce ...
to egg salad sandwiches ...
and lemon cake for dessert.
She also had pretty embroidered linens to share. They are handmade by ladies in India for charity so, of course, I had to buy a few.
These lovely little packages were just for me.
A little box with mother of pearl lid and lovely sandalwood incense.
I hope your day is filled with relaxing moments and the pleasures of friendship. Peace & Blessings, Tammy

Hello Tammy....What a lovely end to a busy day. Great pictures. Susan
How nice to have such a special friend who does things so beautifully. I'm sure you truly feel like a welcome guest. Diane
P.S. What's the difference in time there? If it's 12 noon here what is it there?
How nice to get together with friends... and then to be able to purchase some goodies and get gifts at the same time?... lucky girl! Theresa xoxo

Hi Tammy,
What a dear & sweet friend you have in Shereen! I read on your profile that you live in Kuwait. My dear friend's family is from Kuwait and they make trips there every year!
I also want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your caring and heartfelt words you left for me on my blog. Your thoughts and prayers for my dear Mom mean more to me than you will ever know.
Love and Blessings,
Carol Anne xoxo

I too really believe in presentation and it's how things are at our house as well. So warm and welcoming. Lovely photos and a lovely afternoon for sure.
A relaxing day for sure. Perfect time to day dream of Switzerland. Hope you get to go someday...it fabulous.
I will be posting little parts our trip in between life. Today I'm off to work at the antique mall where I have a booth.
Enjoy your day as well. Blessings ;-)
You can tell that she is a thoughtful person. Everything looks so pretty and delicate. Love the linens! They remind me of some my late grandma left, and some I got last year with Christmas embroidery.
have a great, hopefully less busy, day! :o)
Wow! We actually have Martha Stewart's twin in Kuwait. Your pictures looked like something directly from out of a magazine. Does she have kids? Kudos to her if she did as I know mine would of had those lovely items in the first picture probally on the floor and half broken...lol! Glad you got some R&R. Who needs to go to a spa when you have friends like her...you are very lucky:)
I'm glad that you take time from a life that sometimes gets just crazy to just enjoy a friend and all her love. Good for you!
So, what was the first food you showed? It looks good..and everything was so wonderfully presented..isn't it nice to know someone who will make the extra effort for you? Wonderful!
What a nice way to spend the afternoon. My hat is off to anyone who presents everything so nicely. My food usually tastes pretty good, but my presentation is not worth sharing... I am glad you got to enjoy the company of a good friend after a long day of work and busy moments. Hope you followed the afternoon with some quiet time full of crochet, cross stitching and creativity!!
Love you,
Renee
Lovely luncheon, and beautiful linens. Would love to have some of those. Great to support the ladies.
