While I am most definitely NOT a fan of summer, and I cannot
emphasize this enough, I am a fan of spring. It is the season of hope — hoping
that I’ll find the right fruits, vegetables, and herbs for my garden, hoping
they won’t succumb to insects or disease, hoping that I’ll break even in what I
harvest versus what I’ve spent trying to grow them.
I find that my table settings and decor tend to reflect my gardening interests
at this time of the year. If you feel the same, then you may enjoy seeing the
lazy Susan that I have on my dining table. It’s a new acquisition, thanks to
Pottery Barn rewards points. This is the first time, believe it or not, that I
have ever owned a Lazy Susan, and I have to say that I am really enjoying it.
It pleases me every time I look at it because it is whimsical and fun. The
bespectacled bunny poking his head out of the plant pot is from local favorite
home decor store, The White Hare. The “Nibble” plates are Rae Dunn (Available
on Amazon, but cheaper elsewhere.), the leafy-handled ladle and
upright cabbage plate are by Fitz and Floyd, and serve as the base and serving
ladle for a bunny gravy boat that I inherited from my mother. Seeds, that will no
doubt be viable this year despite their purchase last year, are only a portion
of what I expect to plant this year and are from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds.
The cylinder
vase holds two leaves from two different
varieties of sansevieria that have finally rooted after two months in water –
yay!
The green salt and pepper shakers once adorned the dinner table
of my mom and dad and now adorn mine.
