Dinner for One


Almost didn't make it in this week to join Susan for Tablescape Thursday at http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/, but here I am with Dinner for One.


Do you have the opportunity either by choice or chance, to have dinner alone? I do. Many nights it's on the sofa in front of the television. Other nights it's on the comfy chairs in my keeping room with a tray on the ottoman. But some nights, it's here, in the dining room. It's special. If you find yourself having dinner alone, set the table in your dining room, light the candles, play your favorite music, and enjoy! It's for you, you're important, you're special.

It's a Snowy Night in Georgia


I am a native New Englander. When I moved south, I left behind show shovels, window scrapers, sensible snow shoes, mittens and scarfs. I'll never need those again I thought. Look at this - what the hell - it's Atlanta, it's Georgia, it's the South, it's SNOW! Although it looks pretty, that little red flower peeking out through the branches isn't so happy. I share the same feelings of that little red flower.

Tablescape Thursday - Valentine's Day Dinner



I love dishes, I love glasses. I love setting the table. When I saw Susan at http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/ hosting Tablescape Thursdays, I knew I wanted to join in. This is my first entry and hopefully this inspiration will have me joining in often. I would like to say every week, but that may be a stretch given my blogging history. We'll see.
Here my table is set for two for a lovely Valentine's Day dinner.

A Little Lost

Oh, I so meant not to do this. I didn't want a month to go by without a post. Everyday for the past three weeks I had a thought to get on over here and post something. Everyday I said tomorrow, for sure! It's not like I had nothing to say, I did. Work got in the way, life got in the way, the weather got in the way. I have so many excuses. And now I'm away on a business trip, I will not be able to post anything for a few more days. By my count, that means it will be February before I can get back here. So I'm feeling a little lost, I did not want to abandon this, I had plans. Well I have plans again. It's never too late, that's what they say, right? I'll see you next week, for sure!
