    If only, just once, someone had let her win at “Mother may I” as a child, things would be different today.

    A somewhat enlarged image can be found at the only work, by this artist, so far, to appear in Mr. Melcher’s blog (yesterday).Before Dinner is shown, with a framed, slightly-different-coloration image, and described, by its current-location page, one of 4 colorations available there (ADDITIONAL IMAGES under image).A slightly larger, first alternate coloration image can be found at the alternate page, along with a pointer to the current Connections Detail video (this painting at the 1:24 mark). Another different coloration, enlarged image can be found here; but, several different coloration or detail images are available online.A much longer description can be found in 4 pages of the online preview of a current-location book, starting here. The artist’s Wikipedia page (Google translated French Wikipedia page has more) and collection (in addition to his Wikipedia page Gallery). This and a few of his other works are discussed here.

    I often enjoyed a photo or 2 before a dinner party and, even if none were taken, I like to have any formal dinner tablescape to be artistic.

    Back in my married housewife days, I often made very elaborately finished dishes – chicken salad made to look like a live chicken, potatoes duchess (white and yam) piped and rebaked, trays of glazed fresh fruits and little cakes. I seldom go to those extremes now, but then it’s years since I’ve cooked a dinner for more than just 6-8 people.

    I plan class space in the next house that will allow a large dinner, because although my family are scattered in many states, most of his are local. I DID entertain the last boyfriend’s parents with mine back then (and had dinners at his house with his kids often, sometimes even with x-wife and her mother).
