apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Winter meals in Paris often end with a bowl of seasonal clementines and fresh lychees -- usually brought out after dessert and coffee. I had planned to skip the dessert, but not the clementines, so I used them to help spruce up the table -- an edible centerpiece that works well in winter. In summertime, what about an edible centerpiece of grapes? Cherries? Fresh figs?

Anyone else have ideas for edible summertime table decorations?
