spring greens
after some serious flirting with spring, i think it’s only fair to break up with old man winter. right?! and nothing says spring quite like a vibrant shade of green. what with a dreary rainy day at hand it seemed appropriate to jumpstart my tablescape with these adorable green gingham napkins and hemstitch placemats. what a breath of fresh air! did you notice these cute ceramic napkin rings? they’re etched with nosh, graze, nibble, and pick. and i couldn’t resist adding a bunny in for good measure. in for a penny in for a pound, my mother always said.
with a table, this pretty there better be something yummy dished up. what’s on the menu? spinach and mushroom lasagna, and a scrumptious caesar salad. recipes down below.
placemat | napkins | napkin rings | bunny | eggs | salt and pepper | pitcher
tee shirt | similar pants | espadrilles
the prepster in me couldn’t resist adding a monogram to these espadrilles. didn’t i tell you i was breaking up with winter? spring clothes are too irresistible at the moment.
this toucan is the best can opener ever! mr. style purchased this for mother’s day several years ago as i have a severe case of arthritis with my hands and find it hard to grip or grasp certain items. this little device works beautifully, and the top pops off with ease.
anyone hungry yet? there are a couple of hungry faces staring at me right about now. bon appétit!
Oh, that sounds good! I really needed the reminder that spring is coming, just not for a while.
what color are your walls?
I like the white pitcher! Is it from Williams Sonoma? The link is to a creamer.
Add a green checked gingham apron! ((; Afraid you’ll stain your cute outfit, lol Love the naps & the rings…
Aha, the new Martha Stewart! Cant wait to try the Caesar Salad. Must copy this recipe and try it. Love your new web page design.
I bet Spring in the South is heavenly. Here in Utah its a “tease” Just when you think winter is over……….
I love the whole process of making lasagna–these days, I fix 2 pans: one regular pasta for my boyfriend, and one for me with cabbage leaves or zucchini sliced thin, in place of the pasta, since I don’t do grains any longer and hate gluten-free–they taste awful to me. It’s actually very yummy! The Caesar salad sounds wonderful–I’ll have to try it–I love a good Caesar. It’s warmer here, but we see a warm day and then a cold one right around the corner, so I’m not getting the spring wardrobe out just yet. Enjoy–sounds like a cozy meal. I like the black and white buffalo checked drapes.
Love those drapes in the kitchen and what time is the meal being served?
