Termocrisa Tablescape Thursday

I'm so excited! Two of my very best buds are coming day after tomorrow and we're all going to Relay For Life which will start at 6 Friday night and end at 7 Saturday morning. It's a wonderful cause and also a big giant slumber party! So after taking turns walking the high school track all night we'll come back to my house and hit the sack. Then when and if we wake up, I'll take a tray upstairs for them.

LaVerne, like me, needs coffee...while Barbara.....

is strickly a tea drinker.

Jeff will make some of his fabulous cream scones for us and I've got a tray all ready. I thought it needed just a little color...

So I added some of these little Petite roses out of my yard. I think I'm set!

Do you see the little plates? I bought them last week - the whole set for $4.00 I knew nothing about them...only that it was love at first sight. After researching them and figuring out the mark on the bottom I learned they are vintage Termocrisa. They were made in Mexico by Fire King. Fire King officianados apparently warn you Not to confuse the two. No problem - I've never seen such a delicate blue on Fire Kings (which I love by the way but hello - who needs a Fire King Snob!!!) Anyway, here are the plates which are more a luncheon size.

And I paired them with a brown Friendly Village plate doing double duty as a charger.

I just set my table for tonight's plain old dinner and our favorite glasses for plain old dinner are Target plastic glasses. Most of my dishes are thrifted. I bought the little square teapot years ago in Salado, TX and it's English china and are the Woods and Sons mugs from Marshalls. The tray is really a treasure. My husband had it custom made for me one Christmas. So that's it. Come spend a whole night walking for Relay for Life and I'll serve you guys coffee or tea in bed, too!
