A Little Buffet - Tablescape Thursday

Happy Tablescape Thursday!

I was working on a Patriotic table but alas,
too much
life getting in the way of blogging,
so there it sits unfinished.
I guess it will make its debut for 4th of July.

Instead I am sharing a very simple buffet
that we put out while the menfolk
were building the playset.

Since it was Mother's Day,
the plan was to make it
as simple for the mothers as possible. 
So most everything
was grilled and set out and welcomed by the working guys.
Not much to look at but good eats just the same.


Mother's Day just screams pink so I threw
in a little pink in the serving pieces.

We used our go to menu:

Grilled Salmon
Grilled Asparagus
Caprese Salad
Watermelon
French Bread and Butter




Some pink beverage glasses



Cute and bright striped crocheted placemats



The serving area



Capresse salad



and a bouquet of roses from the garden.



I am linking to Susan at
Between Naps on the Porch.
Be sure to visit the other participants.

Enjoy you day!

Looks far from simple! Isn't it great how just setting out a few pretty plates, linens and yummy food makes everything seem fancier! I really love those white plates and the stand that you have them on. The pretty napkins look wonderful in that bowl on top. Looking forward to seeing your July 4th 'scape!

Maryrose, Don't you just love pink? And not only is your table pretty, but your menu is fabulous!!! Even your salmon is pink... love it!!!
The men surely loved the food but the women probably loved the buffet setting also.
I see that you have a pottery woven basket. I would love one of these! And seeing it with that beautiful napkin in it makes me want to find one all the more!


Thank you for your so very kind words on your visit!
Have a blessed day!
Yvonne
