Inspired this tablesetting!
Chickens and Roosters!
I found these large chicken bowls at a thrift shop
They are made by Blue Sky and were .50 each
I started with a red charger plate and added a black Fiesta plate....both thrifted
These napkins are a recent thrift shop find and were 2 for $1
The white handled flatware is some I've had for a long time
Of course I had to use the white chicken napkin rings....yard sale finds .25 each
I kept the centerpiece pretty simple
Two large spindles of rick rack and a rooster!
Brightly colored rooster salt and pepper shakers found at an Estate Sale
I like how they add another splash of color
These matching mugs were .75 each and I love them and drink my coffee from them often
Inside the rim is 'Cock-a-doodle-do' in several languages!
My friend Denise gave me these great coasters for my birthday
and they are perfect for this tablescape
This is a fun breakfast table!
This also inspired me to make one of my favorite recipes....Banana Nut Muffins!
This is the recipe I've used for over 30 years
It makes bread or muffins
2 c. Bisquick
1 c. butter
1 c. sugar
2 bananas, mashed
1 egg
2/3 c. milk
1/2 c. nuts (optional)
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter. Mix in sugar. Beat in egg. Stir in bananas and milk. Stir in Bisquick, stir in nuts. Bake in loaf pan (sprayed with Pam) or divide batter into muffin tins. For loaf, bake approximately 45 minutes. For muffins bake approximately 15 minutes or until golden brown.
I like to add a sprinkle of nuts on top before they are completely done....I like nuts!
I used walnuts here but pecans are also wonderful!
I hope you'll join me over at
My time with the Traveling Apron is coming to a close....I'll be posting my last recipes inspired by the apron before I pass it on to a new sister!
Hugs,
Linda
