Thanks ladies ..... I'm thinking it is time for another batch of scones. :-)
ReplyDeleteCandy, I love this table!! Of course, besides Persimmon, Lemongrass is my next favorite and I love all the ways you use the color. Always so fun or so beautiful. Where did you find the square shamrock plates, they're precious and go so well with the lemongrass. Though I'm Italian, I love St. Patrick's Day for all the fun and because green is my favorite color!
ReplyDeleteHappy St. Patrick's Day to you and yours!!
The square shamrock plates came from Home Goods about 4 years ago. Love em!
