Today, I’m posting pics of a table that I set last year in the early spring. This was before I was blogging. It is funny that I already set my table and took pics.

The light blue color around the rim reminds me of the robin's eggs.

The centerpiece is a pitcher with forsythia that was just starting to bloom.

If I had known then that I was going to be writing a blog, I would have taken more pictures! This was one of my favorites though and I wanted to share it.

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. In a large bowl, toss bread with 1/3 cup olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic. Lay bread on a baking sheet, and toast in the preheated oven until golden, about 5 to 10 minutes; allow to cool slightly.

    Very pretty table, nice and serene. It is funny how we take pictures of a set table, we have always done that in my family. My mother would “shoo” us until the photos were snapped! Now we get to share it!
