my breakfast Easter morning.

I needed to pamper myself this Easter morning so made a quick simple table just for me. I will later go to my family dinner. I quickly made the Easter eggs and bunny out of  of  scrap paper. Kitty is sleeping in his bed by me waiting for a treat.

Nothing fancy , just cereal with strawberries  and sweetener.My blue and white corelle dishes.A glass of orange juice and hot coffee .

Found my my funny bunny at the thrift store. He is proud to be chosen for my center piece.  He loves his sweet egg.African violet for me. I am going to propagate some leaves. It takes 6 weeks to root. It takes a long time to flower but It will be fun watching it grow.

My cute bunny as a name tag. 

Crispie cereal with strawberries and sugar.

My everyday dishes. The blue is perfect for my pastel table.The sun is shining but still chilly and drab out. Have a great day .You need to click on comment toe comment.

sunny table

It's a dreary day and cold up north . I am looking out the window and  it is snowing. Tulips are pushing up through the frozen ground. One day it would be 69 and the night 32. A few more days and it will be May. I felt I needed a happy table. Yellow makes me happy.I used a bright yellow table cloth with gold stripes . Today was 39.Everything looks ugly brown with just patches of green.

I wanted to use some pretty dishes so chose these  Mikasa plates.

The green leaves the color of leaves on the place mats. I set the table for two.

The  salad is is with a balsamic vinaigrette.

Dessert is fresh fruit topped with a cherry.

Main dish is  garlic chicken breast

It is making me hungry.

Table setting with my acrylic silverware.

What is he crowing about? Oops that could be his brother I am eating.

A cup of steaming coffee.

The flowers I used porcelain liquid on them to make them feel like porcelain.

I love Spring if it ever gets here.

Bread holder.

My cocky rooster looks mad too. Mother Nature please no more .http://betweennapsontheporch.net/ I am seriously pondering over  whether I should keep doing tablescapes. Comments I don't care page views yes. It seems I am dropping in status. It has been  fun and disappointing at the same time. Any help on what I am doing wrong to help me to decide.

Today feels more like spring. It is in the 60's. I thought I would do a breakfast table for the kids so they can go egg hunting. If it is anything like my kids they would wake us up at the crack of dawn. Sleepy eyed I would have to make something quick to eat before they could find their baskets of treats.

View of what it looks like. Yes there is sweet treats on the table. I think a nice hot egg and toast would be a good start.I made fruit with bananas, oranges and apples with strawberries on the top, plus some frozen berries with sugar to suck on. A glass of orange juice and milk to top it off.

Frozen strawberries with sugar.yum

A little basket of chocolate malt eggs.

More goodies

I think the bunny was a bit much on the sweets. This should be the time to celebrated the reason for the season. Tell a brief story about the birth of our Lord. Have a Happy Easter.

Easter bunnies

I am sitting here in a dim light to get this done for  Thursday tablescape.My furnace went off and it is cold in my small apartment. I have moved over to the other side  where it was warm. Will probably for a while if we can't get some one to come and fix it as it is something major. The bunnies are waiting for the big day. I have no little ones but when I was a child we would color eggs the old fashion way. My mother would hide them for us to look for them .I don't remember baskets or candy . We didn't know any better. We would go to Sunday school and learn the true meaning for Easter.

My big bunny the show piece surrounded by a wreath of flowers. I glittered all the leaves and and flowers . It doesn't  show up.Little bunnies looking up to mama bunny. So sweet.

I am using my mismatched plates from Bavaria. The large one my pretty rosebud dishes.

Pink ribbons for the fun of it. I love the polka dots.

A little dish of snacks waiting for the ham to be cut.

I like a dish of  healthy fruit. It also makes a splash of color.

I am also a big fan of veggies.

Cute bunny place cards peeking out of fruit dish. They said it was a kid craft. I am no kid but it took a few tries to get that cute look.

It took a few days to get this together as I am still on oxygen and slow at walking. I must have walked a mile of trips back and forth.

Another view of my early Easter table. Hope you all have a good one. Join me next week with the kids table. I think all the pastel colors are so spring .  It is still cold here and dirty snow banks. Another storm  coming our way soon. http://betweennapsontheporch.net/
