Vanilla Strawberry Hydrangeas and a Casual Breakfast

Wednesday, July 14, 2021

 


Vanilla strawberry hydrangeas

 Happy Wednesday, Friends!  You notice I didn't say vanilla strawberry FOR breakfast in the title, LOL!

I've been taking notes of all the pretty shrubs and other plants we'd like for our front garden, and I really love the vanilla strawberry hydrangeas.  These are from the entrance to our neighborhood, and they are so pretty, especially with all the rain we've had!




When I'm not at the lake or doing chores, I'm spending time at the pretty nurseries in our area.  I need to focus on landscape plants, but I've been distracted by houseplants.  I really liked the plant I found, below:



It's called Tahitian bridal veil




I don't know if you can see, but this plant has tiny little white flowers on it.  I think its so sweet!  There aren't many blooms yet, but there are tons of buds.  I can't wait to see what it looks like in a few days!


MacKenzie-Childs was having a flash sale a few weeks ago, and I bought some placemats.  I set the table for breakfast and included a few fun M-C pieces.


This place is set for eggs and soldiers.
Two of the places are set for muesli.  






We're enjoying the new placemats.


On the menu:

Eggs and soldiers
Muesli
Milk
Coffee
Cream 
Tea
Jam


Also, I want to invite you over to the other blog starting in August as we begin a guided journal:

Until next time...

    1. They are soft boiled eggs and the "soldiers" are toast cut into narrow strips that are then dunked into the eggs. :D

  7. I’m loving those strawberry vanilla hydrangeas, and I’m a big fan of houseplants. I’ve cared for them since I first got married. One of my favorites is grape ivy.
    Your breakfast table is so pretty and a lovely menu, too. Have a wonderful week, Ricki Jill! ❤️
