I was asked if we ever use paper plates. We make a conscious effort to use non disposable dinnerware and cloth napkins and have for several years .
More tablescapes, for Tablescape Tuesday, can be found at Susan's, Between Naps on the Porch.






At the antique mall, I found a blue, yellow and white plaid vintage luncheon cloth and napkins. I love these small tablecloths and look for them, in particular. In the past I collected a variety of textiles. These days I generally look for luncheon table linens.
While in Lebanon, we also visited Shepherd Hills Outlet, where I saw lots of Spode. I'll post those photos, soon.
Molly is so gracious to share her seat, with packages, when I am in makeover mode and on shopping sprees. Because she is such a sweetheart, we treated her to Andy's Custard, in Osage Beach, last week. Andy's has special little cones for pup's. This time, rather than the tiny cone, Molly was treated to a scoop in a bowl. In the collage you can follow Molly's visit, to Andy's, from the anticipation, when she realized where she was, to her enjoyment of this special treat.
I rarely get cuddle time, with our eldest granddaughter, Xanti, these days. Saturday afternoon, at Drew's birthday party, was one of those rare times. We had a chat about her photography (she's amazing) and her plans. Xanti snapped this photo with my little camera. I love it!



We've returned to the lake for more painting. Hoping to finish the front room, this week.
