Monogram Linen with meaning

               Antiquelinen_2

Linens with monograms. Especially in red. Letters stitched beyond my ability, perfectly and precise.

Often at dinner my friends will ask, who is LD (or whatever initials they see on their napkin as no two napkins have the same monograms in my home..)

Lovely Dinner, Likable Dreams, Living Daringly, Lip Dabber…

L.D. can be anything. What name would you give it?

    As a love matcher, this may be one of your codes : When a new single person is at your table, you put this napkin by her/his plate…
    People “interested” will know she/he is a “Lonely Drake”/”Lonely Duck”…
