The finishing touch on Paris

I guess I thought it wouldn't be fair if I didn't let you see the~~~ piece de resistance~~~

Or would that be this adorable couple?

That are about to be torn apart in 3 days

~Pink Romantic Roses~

 

The girl still gone, I went a little wild with the pink.  Here is the daytime version of brunch for the family of three.  I am sure she would tell me exactly what she wanted to eat, how she wanted it cooked and how she wanted it served.

I got so excited "playing" with all my treasures

that if you look, you can see sooooo much wrong!

Silverware missing here and there, how is a person supposed to eat with out a spoon?

Some of my vintage china comes along with is own character!  See?  This one has it's very own chip!  I am not sure how the chip got in it, who did it or even how old the chip is, but I don't mind the chip at all.  I imagine someone, maybe a child even, having a little faux pas at the table and never saying a word to a hostess.

Who remembers paper straws?  I remember them from when I was a kid!

Now they weren't around for long, so I am not THAT old, but these are so

reminiscent of years past.......I HAD to have them!  Maybe I will serve strawberry soda with a splash of vanilla ice cream in this vintage glass~Yum!

Night time falls........

The mood changes.  The candles come out.

I suppose I cannot get away from creating a pink tablescape every chance I get.  It calms me to take out my Noritake goblets and place them with anything that has pink roses scrolling through it

It's so "girly" so romantic.....what girl couldn't fall in love at this table?

Strawberries and sugar maybe?  A cool summer salad?  Maybe the menu doesn't matter, mabe it's the conversation.

I imagine this a tablescape for an outside affair, under the stars with a cool night breeze.  Fireflies, a bottle of wine and maybe a kiss or two.
