My oldest brother was
born on February 22.
He shares both the name and birthdate
of the first President of the United States.
Cherries make me think of
both of these guys named George.

In their honor I set a table
with what else but ~

CHERRIES, of course!
Vintage linens, black and white checks, tartan plaid,
and Mary Engelbreit's own cherry inspired dishes.
Definitely a Mary Engelbreit sort of table!

As you munch on a bite of bread and butter before
lunch, lean in closely, I've a little secret to share.
All the dishes on this table were "thrifty" finds!
"Goodwill Hunting" @ 99¢ a piece.
Oh, is that bowl still empty?
How about

I first shared this table in 2011, but brought it
out of the archives to share again.
Hope you don't mind seeing a repeat.
