“I hosted an afternoon tea for my daughter’s baby shower and it was perfect: the food, the tea and the ambience contributed to the special event. Marilyn dressed the tea table with fine bone china and presented the food in a beautiful way. I can’t thank her enough for the attention to detail, the quality of the food, the presentation and her lovely, warm, accommodating personality. I was perfectly comfortable handing over this absolutely critical aspect of any social gathering.”
