Truly, who sets a more beautiful table (or produces a more beautiful book) than Carolyne Roehm? In her 2001 book At Home with Carolyne Roehm, Roehm created lavish settings for seasonal parties with a few recipes thrown in for good measure. In the section on Summer entertaining, Roehm's tablesettings are heavy on the blue and white color combination- a classic look that is so appropriate at this time of year (although it would definitely work during other seasons as well). Here are just a few of her sophisticated and gorgeous creations.
