A friend is coming for her birthday dinner tomorrow and she will sit HERE, with the special heart wine glass.  She's Italian, so all the guests are helping bring the dinner:  everything Italian except for dessert and that will be carrot cake.  I don't know the origin of carrot cake, but don't think it's Italian!  It will be great to have her here with all the others!!! And I changed my mind about using the Chianti bottles for candleholders.....they didn't look as good as I thought they would with the tablecloth, etc.  So we're going with the little votive candleholders....
