PINK SATURDAY Up The Garden Path

I bought these little beauties at my favorite store. There is an endearing dialog imprinted on them about two woman strolling through the garden path. There little chit chat follows:


Gwendolen quite a well kept garden this is, Miss Cardew

Cecley So glad you like it, Miss Fairfax

Gwendolen I had no idea there were any flowers in the country

Cecley oh, flowers are as common here, Miss Fairfax as people are in London

    Welcome to Pink Saturday!

    Okay, where did you get 'em? They are just adorable/chic/whatever - I love those dishes!

    Clever post too, loved it!

    Today I've got Part II of For a Princess (with Part I recapped) - and as it is centered around a celebration, it fits perfectly what with all of the little princesses in their pink tiaras; ) I hope you can come by -

    Hi Tracy! Thanks for answering my ? about the stemware. Maybe your Home Sense is like our Home Goods?!?! I hope so, so I'll go check it out. My daughter made the faux cake in my first pic for me ~ I'm not talented in that way!!

    Looking forward to getting to know you better thru your pretty blog.
