Dreaming.....

Ok, I have truly been on a blog hiatus! In my defense: 1. I was called to serve for Federal jury duty,( which I managed to get out of - I pulled the Lupus card, for good reason, I am in a flare). 2. My mother was in town for the remainder of the week and 3. I have felt awful. I make for the most terrible hostess and chef during my Lupus flares. So, while the chef has been out of the kitchen, I have discovered some of the most delicious, delectable neccessities for the modern day hostess. Just because you work your fanny off preparing meals, playing Cinderella scouring your home, and give Martha Stewart a run for her money decorating for your next soiree doesn't mean you can't look devine and well put together. I hope these sweet little acsessories will satisfy any cravings, at least until I get back in the kitchen!

Now, this cute little apron would look oh so tres chic while slaving away in the kitchen:


And these darling measuring spoons would look so cute just laid out on the counter. If anyone should stop in impromptu, then they would think you had been SO busy whipping up delightful delicacies!


Are these bowls not the cutest you've seen or what?! So nautical and cheerful.
They would be perfect filled with fresh strawberries, and a dallop of whip cream!


Of course, you will need a drink of cold iced tea to wash down those strawberries. These charming juice glasses fit the bill.


If you are wondering where these must haves can be found, they are all from Anthropologie.

Please keep me in your prayers, that God will help to heal me and get me to feeling better very soon! Then I can get back to sharing some of my favorite recipes and parties with you all! I hope all of you are having a wonderful summer! God bless.
