Fresh.....




a garden party with thriving plants as part of the
tablescape...


this photograph came from a delightful new blog
which you can find

A Designer & A Contractor
and where you will see so many more beautiful tablescapes...
they only have 11 followers, my friends...
go on over & welcome them to bloggeritaville...


& if your dining outside, please include this smashingly
beautiful and really good 
Sauteed Cherry Tomato
dish which can be made at the last moment
in 5 minutes...

olive oil, salt, some herbs (chives/basil/parsley/cilantro, etc.)
and swish around...voila they're done...


and if you don't have a big garden, try painting this
scene on a fence, plopping in a couple of chairs...
why not?




joining Susan and all the others for
Tablescape Thursday,

    The last time you introduced me to a blogger I fell in love with her, her food and her blog. Sam is fabulous! So I'm running over to this new blogger and asking her to be my friend!
    You are so inclusive and a "gatherer". I love that about you!

    No surprise that this table is gorgeous - it's Bunny William's!! Will trot on over to see the new blog later. It's supposed to be a beautiful weekend here so I'm sure we'll be eating outside - unfortunately my youngest and I are the only tomato lovers!!

Please know how much I value your comments. I read every single one and do hope you will take the time to leave your thoughts. I think InstaGram with the Emojis have taken a lot away from blogging, but I love IG too.
