Happy Thanksgiving and a Great Giveaway

We had our turkey dinner Sunday

night so that most of us could gather

together.  

I had fun setting the table and the bar so that

we could all congregate in the same room.

When I have set the dining room table, 

nobody wants to go in there so I

put us all in the kitchen.

The little ones love having a fun table

set for them even though they never

eat much at family dinners.  They 

are having too much fun with each other.

I found these fun turkey plates

over two years at Tuesday Morning.

I now have 18 of them.

I have two kinds of salad plates

that go with the dinner plates.

It is always nice to mix and match 

when you are serving a crowd.

These cute crackle finish turkey

napkin holders sit on the plates.

Pewter goblets are great for the

little ones.  They feel so special 

drinking from a goblet and there

are no worries about breakage.

We brought out the good 

silverplated flatware to go

with all of the silver and pewter.

They have to be hand washed

but it is worth the effort.

Mercury glass pumpkins that were 

part of the home decor create the

centerpiece with a couple of

turkey soup bowls.

We have a large number of

the turkey bowls and often

serve soup or salad from them

but we were having a very

traditional meal this year so

they take center place on the table.
