Come to Luncheon

Visit Richella  for more!

In all the   turmoil  that we have been going through, what  with the Covid 19  and now the   horrible unrest following  George Floyd's  murder  ..all the   rioting and  on-going destruction of property...life and limb,  we take pause to  consider that there really is an evil behind all of this.   Our Creator is not the author of choas and confusion,    but there is one  who  is ultimately behind it all and that is the enemy of our souls,  the one who  was  cast out of paradise  eons ago and whose   main purpose in  all these  centuries has been to  kill, rob, and destroy.  May we all   take time to  seek  the one who holds all things together,  our Lord Jesus Christ,  in  prayer  that   the  Great Deceiver will be  thwarted in his evil schemes, and that in the name of  Jesus Christ he must bow  to a greater authority and  cease  from his  attempts to  take domininon    of this world..   he is a defeated foe and only  gains any power when  he  can tempt people to believe his lies.  

Meanwhile, here in blogland,  on my  page  I try to live by    God's Word..Philippians 4:4-9

4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

In that effort I   want to share  about my  redressed  dining room.  

Last week  my granddaughters sent me  the most lovely  bouquets of flowers  just to say I love you!

These bright and beautiful  colors inspired me to    redress the   dining room   with sunshine and  a  rainbow of color! So out came the  sunny yellow  table cloth!

The  placemats  added just the    explosion of color needed    for   my mood and theme!  I had purchased these  back in later winter  at a sale at Pier One!

  The china  is that,  that I inherited from Hubs  family..  it is  just  exactly  what I had always wanted in tradional style and  in  the  vibrant   hues!..

This   is an antique pattern   by Syracuse China    and the  firing and glaze on it is  equisite after all these years!  I used  some white plates I  had formerly purchaed from Tuesday Morning  as  chargers.  We,  usually,  dine from  salad plates  all summer,  so    this  suits us to a tee!!!

So the table is set  for both a sunny morning brunch,  or  a late afternoon  luncheon.

Some  healthy and delectable  luncheon ideas are found here!!!  I am going to stop myself  now and  write up a grocery list  so I can make  some of these  amazing and beautifully tempting    luncheon creations!    And you have a  blessed rest of your week and  upcoming  weekend  as we enter into Covid Phase two..  Be  smart.  and stay well!!!
