    I love the French Countryside pattern, but I have to say I am leaning more now towards the Italian Countryside after seeing all of your beautiful settings and it would look great with my new "other" brand of china. LOL!

    I love this Mikasa pattern, and I could sure use a new set of flatware as our everyday is looking a little worse for the wear. And you know I'm a happy follower of your blog, Anita! Thanks for the chance to throw my name in the hat.

    I don't do facebook, but if I did, I would "friend" them. I think that's what I've heard people say who do! LOL!

    Sending much love your way...
