I think your table is delightful, so colorful and cheerful!<br />I always put salt and pepper. We don't use the salt, but we pepper it up! The Irish spice collection you know! :)<br /> My mom hooked me on sweet and low, and I still use it with my coffee and CAKE! Like diet coke and chips, lol!<br />I hope you and your mom are enjoying your day. Thanks so much for linking to Let s Dish! I am honored to have you!Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323768335143979148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825561844621682643.post-40893581946976203552012-05-11T11:57:25.859-04:002012-05-11T11:57:25.859-04:00You are obviously close to your mom to be so attun...You are obviously close to your mom to be so attuned to what she likes and what she'll do. I think we find comfort in our loved ones acting in a familiar manner. Your table is very cheerful, with the pretty print napkins and the yellow checked plates! I hope you and your mom have a wonderful Mother's Day!Elainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896721595243003272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825561844621682643.post-32058791862130094142012-05-10T22:59:16.007-04:002012-05-10T22:59:16.007-04:00What a sweet post honoring your Mom.

I agree about the salt and pepper -- my father-in-law immediately salts and peppers his meal before tasting it. I hope you and your mother have a lovely meal at the restaurant for Mother's Day!Triciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979113683683598684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825561844621682643.post-49544362720217905322012-05-10T13:27:41.071-04:002012-05-10T13:27:41.071-04:00Without a doubt, this was one of my favorite of th...Without a doubt, this was one of my favorite of the Mother's Day table posts to read. I loved the way you imagined what she would say and do "IF" she came to luncheon. <br /><br />My mom doesn't come here either, That's really because she's a big control freak and likes everything done at her house. (She reads here so she'll probably see that comment. Ha!) <br /><br />I can't even begin to tell you what my favorite element of this table was because it was just full of one great idea after another. Maybe...it is the yellow checked plates. Actually, I just think it's all just a pure delight. <br /><br />Have a HAPPY Mother's Day at your casual lunch out. We'll be at the Duchess's house. <br /><br />Did I mention that she's a control freak?Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05671482394424988047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825561844621682643.post-5752432275073531542012-05-10T12:10:58.003-04:002012-05-10T12:10:58.003-04:00Oh Mary this whole post was GREAT..I hope you and ...Oh Mary this whole post was GREAT..I hope you and your Mom has the best Mother's day ever my dear friend..Beautiful table..Hugs and smiles GloriaHappy To Be/ Gl♥riahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17515180398559277746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825561844621682643.post-85332756227502441662012-05-10T12:09:44.887-04:002012-05-10T12:09:44.887-04:00I love the details...the story behind your table.....I love the details...the story behind your table...the keen observation skills...and the love with which you honor your mom.

If I had to get a job, I'd get one where the hours don't start til at least 11. 4-11pm would be much better, for sure.
