Say Goodbye to Spring Tablescape

Temperatures soared into the low 60's this week (yeah, I know, doesn't seem very high compared to most of the country.....but for us along the coast of Northern California, it was almost a "heat wave") inspiring Pat to set this week's blog tablescape with a Summer-like theme.
