The side dish I’ve made the most over the years is Orzo with Roasted Vegetables.  It’s an all-in-one side - pasta, roasted vegetables, feta, and pine nuts with a lemon vinaigrette.  In the winter, I serve it with a rack of lamb but in the summer it’s perfect with grilled steak or chicken.  

Mixed bouquets are sometimes hard to get just right so instead, I often choose one kind of flower but in lots of different colors.  My secret is to follow the rule of odd numbers: three or five of each color always looks best. (I can’t explain it, but it really works!) A big bouquet of fresh flowers is an easy and stylish way to celebrate the all of the dads in your life!  Happy Father’s Day!

What’s more perfect for Father’s Day than a fabulous steak dinner?? Start with Limoncello Vodka Collins, followed by Filet Mignon with Mustard & Mushrooms, and end with decadent Frozen Hot Chocolate. He’ll love it, and so will everyone else!! Happy Father’s Day! For my full Father’s Day menu, visit my homepage.

There are so many wonderful places to visit in the Hamptons that I can’t possibly list them all, but here’s a list of some of my favorites!
