Breakfast for Friends!

On Monday I hosted 11 women for breakfast! They are all neighbors and now friends! We had a good time and I thought I would share some of it with you! I set the kitchen table and the dining room table. For the kitchen table I used my everyday Fall dishes. I also shortened the garland that I made last week so that people could sit at the ends of the table.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidQgmKr3S1PlwD9Hy6HW5_YNb8MzihWvfbHeCs5rOW4rj_qVfNBplb8ucG3lvhwCAv1Ya5ymlPZnCJy5xO1jRjQe0RB7yN-S7ooKaM7vt_-7jprOUY6n8X9QlffWCE4275BhNp9MrwRUap/s1600/IMG_2283.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidQgmKr3S1PlwD9Hy6HW5_YNb8MzihWvfbHeCs5rOW4rj_qVfNBplb8ucG3lvhwCAv1Ya5ymlPZnCJy5xO1jRjQe0RB7yN-S7ooKaM7vt_-7jprOUY6n8X9QlffWCE4275BhNp9MrwRUap/s1600/IMG_2283.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> No stacks of dishes for this breakfast, everyone just grabbed a plate and went to the breakfast bar to get their food.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC9n-huGf9Y6Yn09nYvZfh1rXMdeatjg6hc1A8zQUWBDpP4J5opWcvKhJAZsYEdZIE8tNdsdx53rtMlBykyTj36vqOYCwNoqzkJdXIoa2WUjt5v2ClrmZmoh15fZn5cR8ENnrCq_VpPYXL/s1600/IMG_2282.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC9n-huGf9Y6Yn09nYvZfh1rXMdeatjg6hc1A8zQUWBDpP4J5opWcvKhJAZsYEdZIE8tNdsdx53rtMlBykyTj36vqOYCwNoqzkJdXIoa2WUjt5v2ClrmZmoh15fZn5cR8ENnrCq_VpPYXL/s1600/IMG_2282.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWaVULuqdIpkkRmmJxCI45VxxJmYQNuFvREtXduJ8FaC_Ad5CNkT0hV5uLiGDrGcNlO0Bl0ue0QZgPb_YhKwlao1fkj4jlK43aTTcKMvyQek3-hoi53NjESRA_sznrJmNo5AhVi2lrH_Kf/s1600/IMG_2284.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWaVULuqdIpkkRmmJxCI45VxxJmYQNuFvREtXduJ8FaC_Ad5CNkT0hV5uLiGDrGcNlO0Bl0ue0QZgPb_YhKwlao1fkj4jlK43aTTcKMvyQek3-hoi53NjESRA_sznrJmNo5AhVi2lrH_Kf/s1600/IMG_2284.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6lEtezWavIhht4hgEZYif_SVjD8uuVKN1IgFxnLgVGPbWhC8-ziOtpg4b7RuQTuhnlOZnnjGvsqv90eDr73_ck-ZdGE6JtolYI0MCvJKg5hCsf_G6UEUyBPd4OnT1xhPeXjfC6lV_OaxZ/s1600/IMG_2285.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6lEtezWavIhht4hgEZYif_SVjD8uuVKN1IgFxnLgVGPbWhC8-ziOtpg4b7RuQTuhnlOZnnjGvsqv90eDr73_ck-ZdGE6JtolYI0MCvJKg5hCsf_G6UEUyBPd4OnT1xhPeXjfC6lV_OaxZ/s1600/IMG_2285.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> In the dining room I used a mix of plates.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkgsZ7Bpv0yVm2H25xePLEMAOPYB1rzHfkFSYw7laB8ibGA9jQc6ln53sH-81wo6Wx3ja1Xxh33S5xEUR2s-mEisOv_QoPMTxp84-TpVvyqGXUEa88wyoBDdpZid7jDfgt0VvUGYZYvd0v/s1600/IMG_2286.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkgsZ7Bpv0yVm2H25xePLEMAOPYB1rzHfkFSYw7laB8ibGA9jQc6ln53sH-81wo6Wx3ja1Xxh33S5xEUR2s-mEisOv_QoPMTxp84-TpVvyqGXUEa88wyoBDdpZid7jDfgt0VvUGYZYvd0v/s1600/IMG_2286.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> These that are now my FAVORITES and...<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBTw071SiKebBSFTGnGJRcW2jwIK0LkZHhZckZVPRoFRiyyv7TtrWNnm81siAJfjhlHQueyUoOGYrEhJ0Qmmrhg2j_oOM2xJxShe93KJQSReIIWoVhP5pJ-JKTwZQT6XPtL2-rI-Fu-hgv/s1600/IMG_2287.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBTw071SiKebBSFTGnGJRcW2jwIK0LkZHhZckZVPRoFRiyyv7TtrWNnm81siAJfjhlHQueyUoOGYrEhJ0Qmmrhg2j_oOM2xJxShe93KJQSReIIWoVhP5pJ-JKTwZQT6XPtL2-rI-Fu-hgv/s1600/IMG_2287.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> these on the ends.
