I love Christmas, and a Christmas with all the trimmings is just what I enjoy. Therefore Christmas luncheon had in the dining room this year, owing to rainy weather conditions, is a classic affair. Antique Edwardian salon chairs, Royal Albert "Val d'Or" tableware, crystal glasses, Sheffield cutlery, antique silverware and my grandmother's napkin rings, antique linen, embroidered napery, and festive Christmas crackers.
However, it is my floral centrepiece that I enjoy most about my table setting every Christmas. This year my florist supplied me with cream, magenta and pale pink roses. The asparagus fern comes from my garden, as I like to create my own centrepieces.
So why pink? Pink isn't exactly the first colour that springs to mind when you think of Christmas. A few weeks before Christmas 2022, a very dear Flickr friend of mine in America sent me a wonderful Christmas parcel full of lots of lovely presents, including a set of six Sheffield Steel knives from the early 1950s with porcelain handles painted in pink and hand decorated and gilded. She hoped that they might look good on my Christmas table, which they would have since the floral arrangement I made for my centrepiece last year also consisted of pink roses. What my friend did not count on was the backlog of Christmas parcels in the post. Sadly, they did not arrive until after New Year 2023. However they did make it to my Christmas table setting this year, and so I ordered pink and white roses again from my florist. The pink theme, carried on by bonbons featuring pink accents, looked wonderful and the knives were remarked upon favourably by all the diners at my table. This same friend sent me the cake slice to match this year, and it arrived before Christmas, so I was able to use it to slice and serve my Christmas plum pudding.
I hope you all had a lovely Christmas Day and are enjoying the time between here and New Year's Eve.
The table setting at a cottage wedding - hand picked lilacs filled the room with the fragrance of spring.
Table settings are difficult for me to capture because of the long piece of glass I use to cover my runner and protect the gorgeous doilies from my dear Flickr friend in Maine. The Christmas Cactus in our plant window is so happy this time of year. Amazingly, it also flowers at Easter and Thanksgiving!
I love Christmas, and a Christmas with all the trimmings is just what I enjoy. Therefore Christmas luncheon had on the back terrace is a classic affair. Royal Albert "Val d'Or" tableware, crystal glasses, Sheffield cutlery, antique silverware and napkin rings, antique linen and Tom Smith Christmas crackers. However, it is my floral centrepiece that I enjoy most about my table setting every Christmas. This year my florist supplied me with cream, fiery orange and deep red roses. The photos don't do the red or the orange justice. The asparagus fern comes from my garden, as I like to create my own centrepieces.
I hope you all had a lovely Christmas Day and are enjoying the time between here and New Year's Eve.
Time for a quick lunch at Hoteles Centenario restaurant before we moved on the the next Magic Town of Mexico - Cadereyta de Montes.
We ate lunch here on a previous visit and then and now we had an enjoyable meal.
There is no direct bus connection from Bernal to Cadereyta so eventually we found a taxi driver who gave us a 45 minute ride.
A fine day for dining on the deck.

Hadn't seen our dear old artist friends in three years, so was wonderful to visit again for a delicious meal, while sitting on a beautiful picnic *bench* table on their patio! Perfect evening for catching up and dining. Happy Bench Monday, everyone!
Bon Appétit
Inspired by my (belated) watching of the Prince's wedding in Sweden, I was in a mood for festivity and celebration. I loved finely decorated tables, with gleaming silverware, candleholders, exquisite china and thick starched tablecloth.
Cheers to Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia!
Set for Christmas - Day 22
Festive reds in amongst the greens ... tiz Christmas.
Not sure what's for dinner this evening, as we are having lunch out, and might not feel like much this evening.

The color scheme for this wedding was chocolate brown, apple green and ruby red. The room was decorated with elegant, eclectic and unique florals and tableware. Tiny apples and red grapes enhanced the table centerpieces.
Wedding coordination by Michelle of MB Weddings and Events... a joy to work with and highly recommended! www.mbweddingdesigns.com/
I wanted to make a runner to coordinate with my new plates . . . and found this abstract fabric in my stash. I had originally used some of it to make sewn journal pages for a friend. I think the pattern was better suited for that project!
Guess this will just remain a table installation!
Happy Easter, everyone!
