Strawberry Limoncello Martini

Our Tablescape Thursday hostess, Susan, has posted a few tablescapes created by the very talented Bonnie. In a couple of those, she used a pretty dove bowl as a centerpiece. I immediately fell in love with the bowl, and after much searching, I found one very similar.

*****
Mr. Maison and I enjoyed the candlelight while drinking Strawberry Limoncello Martinis...yum!






Strawberry Limoncello Martinis
1 1/2 oz Smirnoff Citrus Vodka
1 oz Limoncello
1 oz Sour Mix
1 1/2 oz Strawberry Daiquiri Mix
Shake and strain into sugar-rimmed martini glasses

If anyone is interested in purchasing one of the dove bowls, it's Item # 719403 by Abigails.net. They are a wholesaler, but you can call Bill at Le Marche at 757-625-1211 to order one.

  3. Oh, T, it is utterly gorgeous! My bowl is being shipped tomorrow. I can't thank you enough for telling me about it. I've been waylaid by writing stuff. I need to search for floating candles (unless they come with the bowl...I bet not).

  17. Oh my, I can see why you fell in love with that stunning Dove bowl. It truly is just gorgeous. The drinks sound yummy too. How pretty to sit by the fire, look at the candles in your beautiful bowl and have a nice drink and conversation. Thanks also for stopping by and yes, I used "our" tureen. It is still my most favorite dish in the whole world. Have a super day. Hugs, Marty
