Living room to dinning room. The table is on;y set for six here, but twelve will be coming for the holiday.
I had this arrangement in the old house too.
I do wish I has a sea grass rug to put down, but the carpet will be going sometime for wood floors so I guess spills won't matter.Oh wait...never mind. I dragged the rug from the downstairs upstairs living room and laid it down under the table. Orientals hide a multitude of spills.
Ready, set, cook.
