Most everything that goes on at our house centers around Miss Phoebe! We are so lucky to have this beautiful little grandchild to love ... and to love us. When she arrived for my little birthday dinner, she was all dressed up ... carrying my present ... but she made a mad dash for the kitchen table where the cake was sitting! She announced that she was putting her finger in my cake icing ... and did just that. She had waited for a few months to do this ... because we had had a conversation back in October about her upcoming December party and the fact that I would not be allowed to stick my finger in HER cake! It had become a big game ... waiting to get to my cake!
This dinner ware came from Kohl's ... the glassware even came from there ... a few years ago! I certainly didn't need more dishes ... but the giant size of these plates made them stand out ... and I love the skinny tall mugs. I've had the red flatware for years ... and use it all year long on various tables! Love red!
Hope you enjoyed my fifty-something birthday! When I told a youngster friend of mine that I'd had another birthday, the little snot "congratulated" me! I say "snot" lovingly! Actually his reaction was the perfect thing to say ... because I'll soon be fifteen years cancer free ... and I count each day ... and certainly every continuing year ... as a gift!
