Years ago, we traded in our fancy dining room for a music room, and became a one-table house. Everything happens in the kitchen. But when I need extra flatland, I pull out a folding table from my growing collection. The heavy wood laminate from buffets past has ceded to a light plastic, so I can move them easily myself. I use all three for Passover seders, and just one for most buffets.



But folding tables aren't just for food. Ellen is here this week to work on illustrations for our book. We set up a studio for her ... in the music room!

We like our folding tables so much, we're putting one on our Table of Contents page. Without the plastic top.
