Just a quick hello. It's been a busy week, as all holiday weeks tend to be. I was putting the dishes away from our Easter dinner and did a quick table setting to show you how it looked. I loved the table this year! I made the napkin rings by grabbing a multi stem daisy floral from the craft store, snipping them apart and leaving enough wire stem to bend into a circle. I wrapped floral tape around the stem to hold it in place. I was able to use a lot of our jadeite and white ceramic serving pieces and it all came together. No fancy multi plate stacks here, just a simple plate that was covered in good food.
Did you have a happy Easter weekend? I'm trying to catch up on blogs. We were without internet for an entire week and didn't get it back until last Wednesday. I'm so far behind I don't know when I'll get caught up!
Tell me about your plans for Spring! Anything new on the horizon?
We did have a wonderful Easter! I used Blue and White dishes too, and forgot to get a photo. Perhaps I'll do a place setting again! We have our own hens too, and I took the lightest colored eggs and my daughter dyed them really pretty deep colors!
ReplyDeleteOur weather was lovely, also!
We had a great Easter too!
ReplyDeleteYour hens are doing a great job. You'll be enjoying lots of omelettes and ...pretty much anything with eggs. :)
Oh those eggs are splendid! It sounds as if spring has truly arrived. I can "hear" it in your voice. So glad that you had a blessed Easter. I finally got the last of the dishes done myself just a bit ago, but never thought to make up a table setting. Yours is sweet!
ReplyDeleteYour basket of eggs is so attractive...the sort of photo that should be on a Calendar!
ReplyDeleteYour hens are doing a fabulous job and it's a wonderful photo! And I love those napkin rings. So cheery! What a smart idea! It looks like a beautiful day in every way. Busy and glorious.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the recipe link. I'm such a sucker for lemon!
What a lovely table setting and the dinner sounded wonderful! It was just Kent and I for Easter and we grilled a steak! MY spring plans revolve around the house being build...those will be my summer plans too from the looks of the time line, lol.
ReplyDeleteLovely post. Your dinner sounded wonderful, especially the dessert and thank you for the link for the recipe. Your hens are doing wonderful things, enjoy those fresh eggs. When once raised chickens and so enjoyed the supply of fresh eggs.
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you and yours and wishes for a beautiful spring!
What a pretty picture! And I have always wanted chickens, you're so lucky.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to catch up on blogs, too. I have limited internet as we travel so I may never catch up totally until I get home! Loved seeing your Easter table setting. It's beautiful. I love simple settings. We had a wonderful Easter this year - church with two very dear aunts and my uncle, a big family gathering with them and cousins and their families, then tender goodbyes as we were continuing on our travels the next day. It was such fun we're talking of traveling to be with them on Easter again!
