Soup Kitchen

What am I doing this weekend.  Making a big pot of soup to  share with my two favorite sisters – Barbara and Judy.  Not my sisters by blood but my sisters by my good fortune.

Here’s a start on the table.

Using my Four Seasons dishes and some teal glasses.

I’ve been making these for our store and maybe for Beverly’s BlogshoP.  Did you read about that? I think it’s a great opportunity for all us.

These are huge Tussies – about 15”.  I’m making some birthday and Christmas ones and people love them for gifts.

Here’s to a wonderful Thanksgiving for all of us.  I’ll be with my family and that is my greatest blessing.   In this picture I think they are grateful for Longhorn and Buckeye football and naps. I’m just happy to have them all under one roof!

  1. HPS!!! What kind of soup? I LOVE soup! And I love those glasses. . .actually I have some just like them cept they are amber!! I use them with my "wheat dishes" for Thanksgiving!! Cept the wheat dishes plates are too small for the men in my family (like so many vintagey dishes are). . .so I have to pull out the big old plates for the boys. We use the little bread and butter plates for dessert. .. and I love using the c/s, but they are also too little for the men. They can be such pains when it comes to using really neat old dishes!

    Your tussies are darling!! They will be PERFECT for Blog Shop! That does sound like fun, right?

    Gotta go create. I have a sale in less than two weeks and I have very little done about it!! eeeeeeeks!

  5. Good morning Nancy, Mmmmmm, I love soup. What recipe are you making? Most of my big pots of soup are in my head. We eat lots of it in the winter.

    Your table is beautiful. The crystal turkey is sweet. My daughter has two of them like yours. Love the dishes and all the detail of your table setting. Have a wonderful time with your sister friends.

    Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones.
    Blessings,
    Jeanne
