You know I’m allll about some over the top flowers, elaborate events, and awesome venues for bringing you all some entertaining inspiration. At the end of the day though, most of us are entertaining at home or with family and friends over more casual occasions, so I’m super excited to start a new Real Entertaining series! Let’s be honest, not every occasion constitutes a florist.
This means you’ll be seeing my family and friends (in their sports clothes) in our homes and possibly a few kids toys or random electronic cords in the background, too. Just don’t be fooled by my sister-in-law that happens to look like a model, haha!
I also want to bring you very doable recipes and decor ideas that are easy to throw together for a quick gathering to bring it all together. In this instance, we hosted a low-key brunch with my (very eligible… see what I did there…) brother and Jared’s family at our house this past Sunday in our dining room at home.
Maybe it’s the Southern gal in me, but you can’t have a brunch without biscuits, right?! I made SUPER easy garlic & herb Boursin cheese biscuits to accompany a few other staples…
When it comes to our parties, it’s usually a family affair. If someone offers to help with something, we always take them up on it!
To accompany the biscuits, I made bacon wrapped dates, chicken and donut skewers, a mocktail fruit punch bowl, and fresh fruit with coconut cool whip for something sweet. My brother made the maple bacon and pork sausage, and my mother in law made her famous egg casserole to round it all out!
Then everyone chips in when it comes to cleaning up. I’m also a big fan of using my cute dishware for serving buffet style and then disposable plates, napkins, and flatware for easy cleanup of everything else.
I hope you love this new series, and if you have any real entertaining scenarios or ideas that you want to see, let me know!

I’m not sure exactly why but this web site is loading incredibly slow for me.
Is anyone else having this problem or is it
a issue on my end? I’ll check back later and see if
the problem still exists.
I am regular reader, how are you everybody? This post posted at this web
site is truly pleasant.
Great information. Lucky me I came across your blog by chance (stumbleupon).
I’ve book-marked it for later!
Hope the projects inspire you to try new beautiful things!
I’m so excited for this series! I love all the other parties you post about, but these ones definitely seem more do-able. So excited to try the biscuits!
I love that this isn’t a “real” recipe. It’s a brilliant! Will try now that I can buy Pillsbury biscuits. This Dallas girl moved to Singapore 5 years ago and I just found a grocery delivery that carries them. Woohoo!! Kitchen is really too tiny for scratch biscuits. I’ll check back after I make them.
Thanks Jeanne! You know, sometimes you just need a “not-a-real-recipe” that’s practical, easy and delish. So excited for you and finding muffins, haha! I can’t imagine not having all my favorite brands at my fingertips! Let us know how you like them! :)
I’m sorry but, this really isn’t a recipe.
I hope you give it a try anyways! I’m a fan of anything that is quick and easy in the kitchen these days. Thanks for reading Shannon!
