chinese take-out


Soup and breadsticks were on the menu for a luncheon date
I had planned with a friend recently.
A savory, satisfying soup served with warm from the oven,
made from scratch, Italian herb breadsticks.
MMmmmm!!


That takes a little time to prepare, and as it turned out,
time in the kitchen was just not going to happen. 
(the best laid plans of mice and men...)


Plan B?
Two lunch specials from Lucky Kitchen with a side order
of cream cheese wontons!


Next- a quick stop at the local floral shop. 
Aren't these gerbera daisies just the happiest?
bright as sunshine!

I love how flowers add a fresh spot of interest 
to a room. 


The table was set with a mix of handthrown pottery I've
started collecting fairly recently.  The individuality of each piece appeals to me.
  There's also something about the hands on process of it all. 
Hands in the clay molding and shaping.  Creating.
So on with the hunt and finding those pieces that speak to me!













Did I say speak to me?
I did! 
This isn't something that I share with just anyone...
but, things talk to me.   
They do!

I have been out shopping, 
totally minding my own business.
 When suddenly something is nearly falling off a shelf to get my attention.
(Me, me!  Look at me! )
 I've had things pretty much jump right into my cart!
(Take me home!)
Or wait, was that me jumping over my cart to check out that amazing one of a kind find?
Whichever it is, shopping is always an adventure!


So what's the point of all this?
The moral to the story?
Go with the flow!  The chinese take-out was delicious and
looked great on our plates.  Soup will wait for another day!


Thanks for checking in!

Happy adventuring,  Deb
