Summer Oh Summer !!!!

Summer Oh Summer!!!

I have missed  blogging, just seems that 
things have got in the way.
 I had a few medical issues that left 
me with the do not want too's.
 I am sure that some of you know those feeling. 
Enough of that lets get  on with the show. 

Summer has definitely arrived here in Texas!! As I type, it is just a cool 99 which feels like 103!! 
Yes I think I will stay in the cool for the rest of the day. 
My how our Texas weather can change in a
 six months time. We have been 
snowed in and flooded in, during these last 6 months. 
 What happen to all that rain
 we had a couple of months ago. 
How soon we forget how we were wishing for it to stop. 

This is my backyard in February
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Water-crossing to my house in  May 2015

In Between Holiday Tablescapes


As I set here writing this, West Texas sand has blown in to North Texas
 and my head is telling me about it. I use to live in West Texas 
an always suffered when those red clouds blew in.
 Only in Texas can you have in one month
 ICE< SNOW<10 degrees <SUN with  75 degrees< 
29 mile gust with SAND  and 65 degrees.
 Guess it is better than 10 feet of snow and 10 degrees. 

During this time of the year I am in a dilemma
Don't you hate it when you are undecided!
 I think it is to early for St. Patrick decoration, Mardi Gras isn't until  March
 and then Easter is in April. 
What to do?????
 So thought I would pull out some of the dishes I have not used in a while.
 So here is a quick look at my In Between Tablescape.

All the Warren Kimble dishes were found at Goodwill, some in my home town 
and others at Goodwill in Amarillo!!!
Maybe that is why the sand is blowing, 
wanted the dishes to fill they were at home ;) 


Visited a friend  that I play dishes with yesterday. Just had  to share her tablescape 
        Table 1
Check below which tablecloth do you like best. 
Table 2

 I have not talked  her in to blogging so I get to share her tables with you.
She is a dish alcoholic like me!
Isn't it great to have friends to play dishes with.
