Tablescape Tuesday!


After an evening of shoveling the snow from the driveway -  it was time for some
Gingerbread Boys and Hot Cocoa.

I bought a set of four snowman mugs and the cookie platter in 1992  from Bittersweet Farms,
an older home refinished into the cutest antique and country store.

The mugs and platter were made at Three Rivers Pottery by Lynn.

To see all of the other Tablescape Tuesday participants

    Dear Robyn- Not only is everything darling, but, it's late here in AZ and I sooooo want one of your cookies there!!! (Guess I'd better go to BED instead... it's less fattening to DREAM about them, I guess!!!). Warmest wishes to an OBVIOUSLY talented baker! Linda/ "Mom..."

    Charming mugs, and "yummy" cookies!
    We have a gingerbread people decorating party each year. The girls have a blast, and they are all so cute.

    Hi Robyn,

    After seeing your cookies, I think I should get started on my baking. I've been putting it off because I kept finding more decorations to put out. No snow here yet, but I'm not complaining.

    Hugs

    Those dishes are adorable! We haven't made gingerbread men for a long time - the smell is delicious. Maybe I'll have to gather the grandkids together so we can throw a little flour around and produce some!! Sally

    Do you suppose Mr. Snowman would mind if I had a cup of hot tea to drive off the cold and to dunk my gingerbread man in. Love the raisin buttons. I feel warmer already. Thank you ever so much for being the perfect hostess.
