Let's Have Dinner on the Deck Tonight!


The weather here is gorgeous!  I want to spend every minute I can outside!!
So ~ I am serving dinner on the deck tonight on these festive California
Poppy dinner plates by Franciscan.  Lots of pops of happy color!





I have not decided for sure what to serve, but I am thinking that
grilled chicken caesar salad might be good.  Oh and lots of tea and lemonade ~
an Arnie Palmer.  




I wish you all could join us.  Bentley will be entertaining us
with his nightly dinner show.  He is such a little ham.  I really have
to film his antics so that you can all have a giggle.



Well, I better run.  I have several errands to run before dinner.
I hope that y'all are having great weather where you live.

Don't forget to visit 


Bentley ~ make sure that you pay extra attention to your Daddy
when he comes home this evening.  He texted me earlier and he is
having a frustrating day.

Hugs,
Susan and Bentley

  1. Hi Susan and Bentley, Love your table setting-it looks so summery. I am sitting drinking Arne Palmer(love it); your chicken caesar sounds wonderful but we will be having Bison Burgers tonight. Enjoy the sunshine.

  5. Hi Susan,
    What a beautiful sunny setting! Love those dishes. It's a pattern I never saw before,Hmmm. I use the APPLE as one of my everyday dishes, BUT YOURS are so summery! I saw a new set "CLOSE but not the same as yours" at one of our thrift stores last month...I was "TEMPTED" but it was more than my BUDGET and I decided to WAIT(and they were gone)...You know the saying "You Snooze, You Loose"! I felt bad BUT we MUST share and some other lucky lady took them home!
    Oh Yes, you MUST,MUST,MUST video Bentley!!!!
    Have a wonderful week,
    Hugs,
    Donna

  11. Bentley, you and Mele are sooo spoiled. The difference is that Mele LIVES at Grandma's house. :) And...she and Grandma have to watch their weight! You betcha!

    Sara, I'm like you, I am definitely on the hunt for those. I found some at Roger's Gardens In Orange County, but they were larger...and these are the perfect size!
    I'm glad you liked them!
