Although the temperature outside is currently 55 degrees (it's 10:23AM) and is expected to "soari" to 59 degrees this afternoon, Pat wanted to set this week's table in a more normal summer weather theme. Also, she wanted to show off our new color of Fiesta(ware) dinnerware that we recently purchased. The new color this year is "Lavender" and (just what we don't need is more dishes especially Fiestaware), we had to get this color.
[Intervention confession time: I just counted the assortment of Fiesta colors that we own with at least eight dinner plates in each color........38. Yes, that's thirty-eight. And we own luncheon, salad plates, and bread/butter plates in most of those colors and that's not counting the bowls, salt and pepper shakers, candle holders and other assorted pieces. Good heavens!]
