You are so right about the pitcher matching your wallpaper...how neat is that! Love the beautiful tablecloth...you always find such wonderful treasures! You know, I've never been to Maine...I really need to get up that direction. Did you link this to TT? This is a perfect tablescape post! :-) I just saw your comment over at Deanna and thought I'd stop by this evening. :-) SusanSusan (Between Naps On The Porch.net)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09655622740971576915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4245215492918574322.post-36600922767842609352009-09-10T19:14:54.016-03:002009-09-10T19:14:54.016-03:00I think you must surely have the coziest house I&#...I think you must surely have the coziest house I've ever seen!<br />BrendaBrenda Pruitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14544794729410559072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4245215492918574322.post-45670731214338178862009-09-10T15:36:42.495-03:002009-09-10T15:36:42.495-03:00What a beautiful tea-set and that pudding looks g...What a beautiful tea-set and that pudding looks great <br />Have a great day.<br /><br />MarjaMarja Rijnsburgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16464270354125404231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4245215492918574322.post-44515774607351101592009-09-10T14:56:40.913-03:002009-09-10T14:56:40.913-03:00Oh Carolyn, I can forget all about Victoria Magazi...Oh Carolyn, I can forget all about Victoria Magazine when I come to visit your blog!

The sticky date pudding looks delicious! You wrote that your mother is Dutch. That means that you are half Dutch. Lucky you! I do not recoqnise the place your mother came from but it looks a bit like 'Groningen'. It's a beautiful old city. You wrote she came to Prince Edward Island after the war, does it mean that your father helped to liberate our country?

I've been wanting Sticky Date pudding for quite some time; never did get any yet. I did get the red tray from the hospital gift shop. That was one positive thing about visiting my mother in there all summer, I got to go in every day and see the treasures they had in there! Nice to get over to Moncton on a shopping spree with the girls. Can't wait to see what you found! If you are available early this evening, I will try to get out for some hydrangeas. It's been a very busy week! Have a lovely day.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />SandiSandi@ Rose Chintz Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415214311003251398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4245215492918574322.post-34874120493457660212009-09-10T09:07:45.604-03:002009-09-10T09:07:45.604-03:00It's so peaceful and harmonious to visit your ...It's so peaceful and harmonious to visit your charming blog.
