Our friend Michelle made the Lemon Chiffon Vinaigrette from the last newsletter and wrote this: Linda! LOVE, love, love your Lemon Chiffon Vinaigrette. I made it for a summer dinner with my husband for our neighbor. The Lemon Chiffon Vinaigrette over our peach salad, paired with veggies and smoked salmon made our palettes sing! It was the perfect summer setting for us to learn about one another’s lives, have meaningful conversation, and taste some joy!

Michelle, I’m so grateful for you. Thank you for encouraging us to gather around the table as you did with your neighbor, to share and to care, to add meaning to our lives.


I love hearing from the Common Table family I'm encouraged by your stories of gathering around the table.  Email Linda

We don’t have to be some kind of fancy cook to invite friends over, when the focus is on friendship, connection, sharing, and caring.

You can prepare your spaghetti noodles 'al dente' ahead of time. Toss them in a bit of olive oil, allow them to cool, and store at room temperature?

In the cool of the morning you can prep your Red Sauce and your pasta 'al dente'. 

In the evening, when ready to eat - everything is done! Simply place the pasta briefly in boiling water to reheat. Last September I hosted a Spaghetti Social for about 75 people, cooked all the pasta 'al dente' ahead of time. 💃🏻

May your shared meals be filled with laughter, delicious food, and heartwarming moments.

From our home to yours,

~Linda 💛
