Check Out These New Dishes


Yes, I am building a house and I certainly do not need anything else to move to the new house when it’s ready, but, I could not resist these!

Here is my sombrero.

With tortilla chips in it, of course.

And surprise, a covered dish to hold your salsa.

I also got this cowboy hat with a built-in dip holder.

I am going to have a lot of fun with these!

Dishes of the Month – August


This month I am using these dishes.

 

That’s right.

These are definitely paper plates and all the extra silver ware that you pick up at fast food places. 

Here’s another shot of them so you can see them in all of their glory!

Aren’t they beautiful in the sunrise?

I have started in a new position at work. 

I am gone from home at least 10 hours a day, 5 days a week and another 4 on Saturday. 

I am very unorganized!

But surely, I will pull it all together soon.

Big Ran is ready for a good home cooked meal! 

Just keepin’ it real, Peeps.

I will get some more fabulous dishes out of the cupboards soon.

Dishes of the Month – June


The dishes for the month of June are called delphite.

They are Fire King like the jadeite that I have.

They are baby blue.

I have six dinner plates, two bread or salad plates, eight saucers, two cups, and a vegetable bowl.

I don’t have a lot of them, but enough for Big Ran , Madi, and me.

I am on the lookout for more of these.

I added my two blue goblets to the mix just for fun.

Check out my other blog www.justrestingup-home.blogspot.com.

I put a post on earlier today.

Dishes of the Month – May


Here is the 2nd set of dishes that I bought from the ladies at the church in my home town.

I got a set of six again.

This set came with clear, glass, dessert goblets.

They are just as beautiful as the 1st set and very similar to them.

I plan on combining them on occasion.

They are dinner plates, salad plates, cups and saucers, and dessert goblets.

Ooooh, the possibilities!

Here is a close up of the cups.

The dessert goblets are so dainty.

Thank you ladies of the church and Valerie!!

I will put these to good use.

Dishes For The Month of April


These dishes are a small part of a set from the Methodist church in my home town.

The church membership has dwindled down over the years and they are going through the extra things that they don’t need anymore.

So……………since I am such a dish freak I bought a set for my family.

I got a set of six.  Dinner plates, salad plates, dessert bowls, cups, and saucers.

 Aren’t they beautiful??

I think this set looks fabulous with my gold ware.

This dessert bowl looks to me like it needs some ice cream in it.

I talked to one of the remaining members of the church and she said that they are at least 70 years old.

They are labeled with Thompson.

I like the color combination of these dishes, black, white, pink, green, and gold.

I bought another set from them, too.  But that’s for next month!
