An Abundance of Eden...

(click on photos to enlarge)

I don't believe there is a prettier rose

than the Eden,

with her delicate layers of softly shaded petals.

She is delighted about the hot weather

and has begun blooming abundantly...

I couldn't be happier :-)

So the table begins with her..

Then, since I have bought so many garage sale rose dishes lately

I thought I would mix and match more roses

into tonight's table...

My favorite new dish is this Homer Laughlin casserole..

since it was too hot for baking,

and since I could not resist using it,

I will serve a cold pasta salad from it...

I am also using my Homer Laughlin,

 they were almost a match (to the casserole dish)

 bone dishes,

Since we are vegetarian

bone dishes are an odd choice for our table.

But the uniqueness of them adds a fun look to the table

and I have several ideas for alternate uses,

tonight they will serve as a bread plates...

The sun low on the horizon

looked pretty

glowing in through the window...

I used my simple go with everything plates

from Marshall's

they have a pretty pearly pink border

that was hard to capture...

The vintage napkins

 are a loose weave,

with a pretty pulled work design...

My Motto..

never enough roses :-)
