If you have been thinking about shaking things up a bit this holiday season, consider switching your traditional dressing with one of these variations.

A lot of our holiday memories are centered around food and family, and the dining room table is where it all takes place. There is nothing like a seasonally festive table setting on a holiday to set the stage for a memorable family gathering. Whether it is an intimate dinner for two or a large gathering of family and friends, there are some simple strategies for creating the perfect tablescape.

It is no secret that pumpkin is fall’s favorite friend. The addition of pumpkin spiced lattes to menus signals the transition from summer to fall just as much as the arrival of cooler nights, Friday night football, and the changing leaves. However, this year, we are planning to get our fill of pumpkin through more than just our morning coffee run. Welcome the new season with these pumpkin-inspired goodies and activities.
