Pub Lunch in the Garden

For the past few summers I've been having lunch in the garden for a friend's birthday.  One year it was afternoon tea, but the last two years it's been a traditional Pub Lunch with salad (accompanied by my own recipe for English salad cream), an assortment of English cheeses, sliced meats, deviled eggs, chutney, fruit, crusty bread, and British cider.  (The hard stuff!)

Here is the table setting from last August. 

 Flowers from my garden were the only "adornments" for the table.

 I wanted it to be rustic and welcoming and not too fancy.

A pleasant memory on a late winter's day!
