Happy Tuesday sweet friends! Before we get started today, let’s announce our winner for the $75 Amazon gift card from last week’s Tea and Roses Blog Hop…Congratulations to Jessica Whitehouse!  Thank you all for entering and I hope you all enjoyed our Blog Hop!

I hope your Memorial Day Weekend was fun-filled and rain-free. With rain forecasted for yesterday, we moved our observance to Sunday afternoon which proved to be the right call. It appears that Alberto will be bringing rain for the entire week to our Appalachian Foothills.

With summer fast approaching and thoughts of meals on the patio and in the garden, I want to share four of my favorite alfresco tablescapes. I hope you will be inspired to set a pretty table, prepare a meal, invite friends and enjoy the beautiful outdoors!

Happy Tuesday lovely friends.  I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother’s Day Weekend.  My weekend was extremely busy, but it was loads of fun.  Butch took me to my favorite French cafe, Chez Fonfon for dinner on Friday evening.  Saturday was Ella Mae’s birthday, can you believe she is two?!!  Her Mommy planned the sweetest party, I hope to share soon.  My sister-in-love had the family for Mother’s Day lunch, which was delicious.  I didn’t cook all weekend, how perfect is that!!!

Late Sunday afternoon I set a table in the garden with 90 degree temperatures.  It seems that we have jumped right into summer!  I was inspired by the wildflowers growing in our lower pasture and along the roadside, free for the clipping!

Much-used white dinner plates and salad plates with a yellow border and a blue flower were a perfect complement for the wildflowers.
