Time for a Summer Tasting Party?

Today I went to Pier 1 and completed my dinnerware collection.





While I was there, I had so much fun looking at their tasting party collection. Of course I had no trouble envisioning perfect little portions of scrumptious dishes presented beautifully in all of the nifty little tasting pieces. But then I remembered how much I (don't) enjoy entertaining, or the fact that I have no idea what, exactly, it is that I would make to fill up all the many tasting dishes!! Whether or not you like to entertain, you'll enjoy browsing through their tasting party section on their website. They even include some recipe!! Who knows, maybe someday I will attempt a tasting party!

I finally decided to get different dinner napkins. The ones that I originally chose seemed a bit busy with the beaded border on top of the napkin rings. The ones I finally picked up are an interesting summery-green color with a discreet mustard yellow border. The green matched the border on my table runner. They are actually a variated color so they are not a solid green.   The colors never show true when I take pictures...but I've included a picture anyway, because this is a blog...and that's what you're supposed to do!

These are the rattan chargers and napkin ring I chose, as well

I also found a great lamp that I really, really wanted for the beside tables in our master. It was 80% off...because it  was the last one in any Pier1 store. :( I did buy it, because it was only $9. I'm sure I will need it. :)
