This January has been particularly cold, in my opinion anyway. I've been thinking about my garden a lot. Since I can't take a liesurely stroll through it anytime soon, I decided to set he table for game night in a garden type of way. My Mom got me started on the Pfaltgraf pattern Naturewood. I LOVE it. I now have several pieces. I also have napkin rings that look like old flower pots. How perfect is that? I'm sure nobody caught on to the fact that it was single digits outside and my place settings were meant for weather temperatures above 65. Either way, I was very happy with it. I also had a liitle Valentine's day put in for good measure.
Just can't see that in the picture.
Here's Sara with her birthday cupcakes that she knew nothing about (nudge, nudge, wink, wink).
Here's a close-up of the cupcake stand. I got the idea for the dice on the cupcakes off the web somewhere. The colors came from the Mickey Mouse dishes I got from Sara for Christmas that I used for snacks during the games. She got them from a Walt Disney World gift shop. When I saw them I really wanted to get them, but I was supposed to be getting gifts for other people, not me. She was awesome and picked them up. I knew I was getting them and couldn't wait the month and a half till Christmas! I should have taken a picture of them to show you, put you can see the colors on the cupcakes.
Here's the cupcakes close-up. Taking orders now!
And finally, here's everybody at game night last night. Winners of game night were Mike, Sara's husband, and Michele. Eric was happy because Michele gave Eric the prize. That's SO Eric-like.
Did I happen to mention that it's been a really cold January. It inspired me to make the decorations for my front door.
Well, stay warm! Time to plan next month's game night!
