Soups On

It's Thursday and time for

Tablescape Thursday at

"Between Naps On The Porch". Be sure to visit Susan and all of

today's talented participants for

this weeks inspiration.

We are having a lazy week as far

as tablescapes go at the Copper

household. Husband is in Atlanta

at school, so it's just the two of us.

And as we all know teenagers are

never home, so really it's just me!!

We have had wonderful weather here

in the 60's most of the week with rain

and cooler weather today. A great time

for me to put my gardens to bed for the

winter. A layer of leaves with another

layer of pine straw and everything will be

protected.

So that's why "Soups On".

We are eating at the kitchen island tonight.

I thought I would use red to brighten things

up a bit. We are having potato soup and

cornbread. I pulled out the roosters and a

few of my everyday dishes to put this

together. The soup will be served in the

white rooster tureen, cornbread in the

chicken basket. I am serving milk from my

antique glass milk bottles.

Our soup.

Hot bread.

Cold milk, fresh real butter!

The candle was a gift from my oldest daughter.

The soup bowls are a set of four and have

different recipes on them, for tomato, onion,

chicken and mushroom soup, printed on them.

I received them as a gift several years ago

from a co-worker. I used everyday salad

plates under the soup bowls to hold the bread.

Napkin rings are from the thrift store. I found

three, a rooster, pig and rabbit.

Glasses are from Wal-Mart.

The place mats were a gift from my oldest

daughter.

The napkins were bought at a tag sale

many years ago, I think they may have

been hand made.

Thanks for visiting, I hope you enjoyed

your stay!

Everyone have a safe and Blessed weekend.

By For Now,

Sandy
