About Georgie:
Hi I'm Georgie! I'm a doctor living in Adelaide, South Australia. Outside of work, I love styling my home, tablescaping and hosting dinner parties. I'm obsessed with traveling and constantly researching the best places to stay, eat and drink.

Christmas Traditions:
Putting my Christmas tree up late November, driving around to find the best Christmas lights and watching The Holiday and Elf. I have made a new tradition last year of gingerbread house making with my girlfriends, which was so cute.

Favourite Dishes:
I am Italian on my mum's side so naturally I gravitate towards an Italian menu. Antipasto and oysters to start, spaghetti vongole for main with a panzanella salad on the side and a giant tiramisu in a beautiful bowl for dessert. I also love making mini Pavlovas with fresh whipped mascarpone cream paired with passionfruit curd and berries.

Music:
Christmas carols are played from late October in my household. Essentials include Mariah Carey, the Justin Bieber Christmas album and Feliz Navidad.
Decor/ Table top styling:
For Australian Christmas, I opt for colour. I base my tablescape on the flowers, this is always the first step for me. Hydrangeas are my all time favourite specifically in light pink or white with a linen tablecloth and Bordello Pinhero cabbage dinnerware. I would finish the table with my bamboo chairs and cutlery.
Ultimate dream Christmas entertaining scenario:
My dream Christmas lunch would be somewhere in Italy. I am thinking Passalacqua hotel in Lake Como. Their interiors are so decadent and would be the perfect setting for a Christmas lunch. Giorgia Eugenia Goggi from Masseria Moroseta would curate the menu and guests would include my family, best friends and Stanley Tucci. The tablescape would be everything La Double J.
