  16. Just in time - we're finished with dinner so I could have a bit of that shortcake (If only I were closer....). All you need in a tea towel with strawberries on it for cleanup. What a pretty spring table.

  18. Strawberries are just a happy food aren't they? I brought home a few vintage cloths from my in-law's house yesterday. I haven't even really looked at them yet...but I can't wait to use them for a tablescape once things slow down a bit! Thanks for sticking with me while I'm being a bad blogger!
