Bordallo Lemon Leaf Table

Enough Winter! Enough Winter tables! It's storming outside, again. The rain is pelting down. It's cold.  I was just without power for over three hours after going through several outages throughout the day, and now it's time to stop with this....Am I frustrated? Yes.....I shouldn't complain, I know, as I say ad nauseam, we need the water here in California, but how about spreading it out a little bit more???? We are fifteen inches above normal already.....and we still have weeks of the raining season to go.....

So Pat took pity on me (she lives a half hour south of me and has had no power outages) and decided on a very UN-Winter table.











One of our prized possessions in our collection of Fiestaware : Vintage "Forest Green" Bread/Butter plate [1951-1959].

  6. That table brings the sunshine even if there's none outside! The lemon patterned placemats and accent plates are perfect together, and as usual, the whole table is stunning.
