G is for
No cloud cover last night gave us a little frost (on April 8 in the Willamette Valley? This is unprecedented cold!) But no cloud cover today gives us SUN!!
Knitting and Literature Society meets here tomorrow. The theme is New Leaf, since there are so many about right now. Too bad the colors on this aern't better. A butter-yellow tablecloth, snow white napkins, butter-yellow Noritake with blue-green edges and snow white centers. I never met a Noritake pattern I didn't love.
Cheerful little sods, aren't they?
More photos tomorrow when the strawberries are glimmering in their glass bowl, and the cookies are nestled happily on the plate. I'm thinking maybe I'll add chocolate chips to a peanut butter recipe.
And I'm making deviled eggs. Do you think it would be ok to color the egg sstuffing stuff? Blue and red and basic yellow? Kind of cheery and colorful, or just a bit gross?
Yeeha! Initiate baking frenzy!

Coloured egg filling might be going a bit far ... do you have any pastel-ey decorations you could just casually strew about?

Do remember I'm baking cookies as well: Persian rice-flour shortbread with nice green pistachios (gluten-free) - and it sounds like bird-shaped cut-outs would be fun. Maybe even with frosting. My fingertips are all dry and salty from shelling pistachios.

I really do love how you make every place setting a particular work of art on it's own! Go Roxie!
