Pretty Pears in Green

I found the cutest little container with pears on the lid at my favorite thrift store.  Then I went to get my groceries and what did I find? Yes, dishes and dessert cups. At that point I knew I had to put this table for two together.
  I do have to tell ya'll that when you work at home, you often loose track of what day it is:-) or at least I do. So I didnt realize it was tuesday and time for marty's party till late this afternoon. So I quick put my table together
and I'm posting it in a few minutes and then I can spend tonight visiting all those who linked up to the party while I watch American Idol.. Sounds like a great night to me~!!

Table Top Tuesday...hosted by Marty over at A Stroll Thru Life.

 I just love these new plates and I know they'll be used often at lunch time. They are just perfect for a salad and the cups will work well for mixed fruits.
Please visit Susan at Between Naps on the Porch
for a list of all the talented Tablescape Tuesday participants.
That lit candle doesnt show up very well , sheesh  .. Oh well its the thought that counts I guess..
 I got my crocheted table shawl off ebay for 9.00 and I've used it on almost every table in the house.
Its one of those oh so cozy items that make me smile when I look at it.  I can crochet but not a fancy pattern like that..
Isn't that the cutest little pear container you ever saw.. I just love it..
My plant is so happy now thats its been moved to the window.. This table sure has been a joy to use since its arrival last week.
  Thats it for this tuesday. Thanks again Marty for hosting the party . Looking forward to seeing all of your displays tonight... Your visit and your comments and YOU are much appreciated..
