Summer Luvin’ No. 4

I like giving (and receiving) gifts. Something else I like: charcuterie boards! I love different styles and textures, the ambiance they add to gatherings, shopping for the elements, decorating the board and of course eating every delicious morsel on them.

I just gave this seventeen inch marbled charcuterie board by Mud Pie as a gift (but really as a gift for me). The copper plated initial adds a swanky understated factor to the housewares find.

This weighted conversation piece comes with a hammered cheese knife to compliment the design.
I piled on gourmet berries, cheeses, chocolates and crackers.

Charcuterie is a French word and means cooked meat; mainly pork, which is why Pepperoni, Salami, and Proscuitto are the main attraction.

This one showcases simple slices of DeLallo Pepperoni that contains beef. I have put Coastal Living Magazine award-winning party plates together with smoked salmon drenched in minced olives, lemon and onion.

When the kids are around I swap the aged cheese and Brie for a dish of peanut butter and cheese strips and the occasional crustless PB&J.

For thirty-six dollars this is the cutest non-wooden snack tray I’ve seen.

I’m swigging San Pellegrino Terme these days but add on a matching marble wine stopper for twenty dollars.
