Happy Easter! While it's not on my birthday this year, I was born on Easter Sunday, so it's always been kind of a special day. This year, we had Mel's parents over for lunch. Mel's mom was kind enough to bring all the food since we're still settling in, so we had lasagna, lamb, and asparagus. And of course, there was plenty of cheery colorful Easter candy for snacking after dessert.
I sent
my mom a couple of quick snaps of the first table I setup in the new house (no tablecloth because I haven't unpacked them yet), and this is what she sent me back. Isn't that so cute?
It's such a beautiful day here, we've been enjoying our new yard and deck.
Hope those of you in the Northern hemisphere are having a wonderful Spring day wherever you are, too!
Oh, I also have a grey vintage kitchen table with black and white accents. :)
ReplyDeleteYaaay! Happy Easter :) You guys look so happy in your new abode. I love that we collect the same dishes as well; Primrose is awesome. I do wish I had your custard cups though!
ReplyDeleteYay for Primrose love!
DeleteYAY! Happy Easter and happy birthday (hope it's not belated!) Your new yard/deck look fabulous!!
ReplyDeletevery happy!
ReplyDeletea yard and deck?!?! so jealous :)
ReplyDeleteTeensy yard though! But perfect for our 6 lb. dog, ha ha. Once we're more settled and actually have furniture in all the rooms, I think we'll try and have a little vintage get-together, I'd love for you to come, then you can enjoy it for yourself. lol :)
DeleteHappy New House!!! YAY!

I just got a new (new to me!) casserole dish with the exact same flower pattern as the plates in your picture. If you happen to know the name of the pattern, let me know. Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteHi Chrissy, if you're looking for more, the pattern is referred to as Primrose, by Fire King. If I recall correct it's from the early 60s. There's several baking dishes, plates, cups, snack trays, you name it! It's pretty easy to find pieces for a reasonable price online, too. :)
Deletecongrats on your news home and happy easter! (and yes the weather today in Madrid was sparkling)
ReplyDeleteYou really look like you're settling in, how fabulous to be starting a lovely new life!
