Black & White Tablescape for Two

I love creating special party themes for my kids birthdays, but this time I thought I would surprise Hubbyman with a late night romantic dessert and this fabulous Black & White Tablescape for Two. I was inspired by Moll Anderson’s new book Seductive Tables for Two.

Moll has tons of great information in her new book and it’s filled with great photos, tips, recipes, and ideas for setting the perfect table for two.  I decided that the perfect place for my romantic evening was by my fireplace.  I don’t have a small table, so I had to great creative.  Moll gave several examples in the book about using creative items as tables..so why not my fireplace. Right?

I think my romantic Black & White Tablescape for Two turned out great!

I had everything in place when hubbyman came home from work, but he had to wait.  Our romantic evening wasn’t scheduled until after the kids were in bed.  Oh the anticipation and excitement from having to wait was killing him!  It was no surprise that we ate early, got homework done, chores done, and kids in bed super fast that night.

When the little guy was asleep, I lit the candles and pulled out the chocolate cake.  We grabbed some pillows and had a romantic dessert, just the two of us, by candlelight.  We had such a great time reconnecting on a Tuesday night for absolutely no reason at all.  It was fun to surprise hubbyman and I can’t wait to do it again.
