Good Morning Threadkillers!
I'm also buying a new pair of exercise sneakers and making a chicken & broccoli casserole for dinner.
I've decided to change my dishes to restaurant white and am currently picking which ones I want. I found some reasonable ones at Fresh Market, but the Williams-Sonoma dishes are really beautiful...but

pricey! I've also decided NOT to get rid of the (two) patterns I have, but pack them up and will probably drag them out in about 5 years or so....I bought them both in Sicily, so I really didn't want to give them up. Boring - I know - but had to verbalize!
Hope ya'll have a GREAT day!
Ann,
Soooo NOT boring!
I am in the mkt. for new dishes....I just bought new cheepies, that match my Green/blue kitchen motif, but as I said they were CHEEP...and already starting to chip

....
You could always mix and match with the white ones...Id love to get some chargers, but cant justify paying for something that just makes your plates look nicer on the table...The table setting does look really good with them tho...and I LOVE a beautifully set table
I am also interested in your Broccolli/chicken cassarole...
I am having my long lost relitives over on wed. for lunch(from out of town) This is the first time they will be coming.....I have NO idea what to serve.

...I dont even know what they like or dislike...They are in there 60s Id say...and in town for a Drs. appt.
I was thinking a roast chicken, but we dont know how long the appt. will take, so the cassarole sounds more forgiving if they run late....
Is it easy?......What do you think...should I stick with the roasted chicken...
Im also thinking of a make ahead kind of thing I could do the night before...

...
Any opinions out there?????
It looks kind of gloomy out there today...but its early...so You just never know.....
BUT The lawn is mowed...and thats a big chore, I DONT have to worry about now....THANKS to my DH.....
We took the girls to a BIG flea mkt. yesterday...gave them all 5 bucks.....BOY did they do well....
Amber got new sandels, Julia got some very nice jewelry, Britt did too...some very nice rings....
and the twins...got ALOT of things LOL......beads, a Cinderella barbie, a cute purse, with a change purse to match....sunglasses....a Princess, calculator...
They all had a blast, bickering down the sellers......and The twins were SOoooooo very cute to watch....They thought it was the greatest thing to not have to pay what was asked for....It was like magic to them...LOL..
AND Im proud to say they were all very polite, about it all....
There was a BIG amozon parrot, there and the owner was just sooo nice and let the girls hold him...( Herbie)...They were sooo thrilled....Mike took pics on his phone...Ill have to get him to upload them so I can post them....(I hope they came out alright)....
Well I have a dentist appt tomorrow
