[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok fancy people, answer me this. If you have a centerpiece on the table how do you fit all the serving dishes you need for a big meal like Thanksgiving? Or is the food left in the kitchen and people take their own plates to fill then sit back down. [/quote] Oh goodness, we always serve buffet-style from either the kitchen island or from a sideboard, never putting everything on the table. I cannot stand serving big meals like that family-style; nobody wants to politely pass, pass, pass, having to hold heavy dishes for kids or people who can't handle heavy items. It takes forever, the food gets cold. We keep our gravy on low on the stove, dressing is hot in the crock pot. We pass rolls and butter at the table, and if one person gets up for seconds, they might bring around the green beans to serve whomever else wants it, too. But mostly it's just buffet style, go back up for what you want whenever, help the kids if you can.[/quote]
