Decisions, Decisions, Decisions

More preparing for my little tea party on Saturday.  

Trying to decide which dishes, flatware, etc. to use.  Thought you might like to chime in with your opinion.

First up are teapots:

Which one do you like?  Actually I'll probably use two of them.  I only have one tea cozy though.  Hmmmm....I don't think that will be too much of a problem though.  

Now, on to the glasses for water or lemonade.....

I have to confess, I think the depression glass is my favorite, but it doesn't have much capacity.  (Can you guess who just taught their third graders metric and customary units of measurement? Yep, that would be me!)  Which one would you enjoy?  

Okay, now for flatware....

Some are a little more casual than others.  I love those red and white ones, but I'll probably go with the silver.  I might even use my new incredible bargain silver plate.  The ones I mentioned here.  (I took a picture of them, but it was too blurry to show you and I was just too lazy to go and reshoot them.)

Let's look at plates next.......

I have always loved layering this depression glass on my wedding china.

See any combinations you think might be the bee's knees?

And I can't forget the all important teacup.....

Well....what do you think?  What do you think would look good together?  

I didn't even talk about linens or a centerpiece.  

Now remember, we're also having a book exchange....

Should we have a more literary looking table?

Or should we celebrate spring?

The weather is supposed to be rainy (again) on Saturday, so maybe not too springy.

Oh I am so excited for Saturday!  

I sure wish you could come!  

Wouldn't that be a delight?

Thank you so much for stopping in to visit.  

I'm always so delighted to see your bright and shining face!

Let ME Out! Let ME Out!

Let who out???

Let all of you out?

 Promise not to run away?

 There are an awful lot of you!

 Do you remember the last time I let you out? 

You weren't very well-behaved and one of you broke your handle.

Well, okay, since you asked so nicely.......

 What's that?  You want to model for our visitors?

Well, just a few of you, okay?

We don't want to tire our guests.

 Ahhh - there's the twins!

 Aren't you the cutest?

 Be careful this time.  Don't break your spout!  You know what happened the last time.  Don't worry, I won't embarrass you by bringing it up in front of our guests.

Hope you enjoyed this little ME teapot round-up!

I was able to corral them all back in their jar and no one got hurt this time.

Thanks for buzzin' in!

I've got a real ME teapot that we'll have to share a cup out of one day - soon, I promise.

Hope you can stop by my friend Vicki's to see some other fun Mary Engelbreit treasures!
