    Love the blog name!!! That's perfect!!! LOL! What a gorgeous table setting. I love the red transferware dishes, I would love to have a set of those. You are very clever with your center piece with the candle in the teapot and the frog figurine! It's all so lovely!

    Thanks for stopping in to my site.
    I have never seen bi-colored depression glass before. How unique.
    Another good use for broken/chipped teacups and saucers is to glue the cup to the saucer and use it as a flower vase with a cute little arrangement in it. I received one as a gift once and I loved it.

    Pink and green is one of my favorite color combinations and I LOVE your depression glass. I have never seen anything like it! Love that you have thyme with your flowers! Very pretty!

    Thanks for your sweet visit - I'm glad you stopped by. Now I do think this is one sweet tablescape! I adore red transferware (my favorite) and I've long admired the pink AND green depression glass (my two favorite colors) AND Mr. Jeremy Fisher was my son's favorite book for a long time! Love the way you've recycled your broken china! This is lovely!

    Love the red transferware and I think I'm going to have to keep an eye out for some of my own. The pink glass and little frog are perfect with your tablescape!

    Oh I love your transferware -- so pretty! And I need that frog! It can join my frogs and pretend to be an enchanted prince. Although my Beanie Baby dragon says he is tired of being slain by make believe princes.

    Such a drama queen.

    Thanks for visiting -- a lovely table. Saw a whole set of those pink and white dishes today for "nothing" at an Estate Sale! I was tempted but . . . blue and white is my "thing"!

    Very pretty tablescape, love the frog and the pink & green glasses.
    Thanks for visiting Normandy today, the Senseo coffee makers are very popular here, but it seems the are not very well known in the US.

    Just love this! Your 'scape is so pretty with the pink and green. That froggy is fabulous! I love how you have created a little place for a small table in your home. We have done the same in front of a window and it is wonderful to eat (and of course, set the table) at a different spot in the house.
