Welcome to Chez Crutchfield
This time of year, we affectionately call our house Chez Crutchfield. With reservations booked all summer long, our entertaining skills are put to the test—and we love every minute of it.
Hosting with Flexibility
We plan menus ahead of time, but if plans change, we are perfectly happy to go with the flow. Our only expectation is that our guests have the experience they truly want.
Some friends and family work hard all year and simply want to relax. Others arrive ready to hike, river raft, and take in the sights. Either way, we are ready.
Meals Made for Gathering
Our dinnerware takes center stage throughout the day. In the morning, salad plates and soup bowls are filled with blueberry muffins and fresh fruit. Later, they serve a light lunch—perhaps charcuterie, chips and salsa, or tomatoes with mozzarella—because we usually have a big dinner planned.—https://www.crutchfieldpottery.com/shop/p/single-3-piece-place-setting-handmade-pottery-dinnerware-stoneware.
The main meal is almost always barbecue where our ten-inch dinner plates allow afor generous servings of summer favorites.

A Sweet Summer Finish
This year, our raspberries are producing in abundance, so we are chilling tumblers in the freezer and making fresh raspberry shakes. I even had to buy big straws and long spoons—because every last drop is worth getting.—https://www.crutchfieldpottery.com/shop/p/set-of-4-pottery-tumblers-ceramic-16-ounce-cups-choose-your-glaze
We hope your summer is going swimmingly! Whether you’re spending time with friends, family, or a quiet moment at home, enjoy every moment of everyday,

Start the day in the garden with coffee or tea in our Raspberry Twilight Mugs.
