Going Ape over Green and Bloggy Thoughts

For those of you who use Blogger they have instituted a new spam filter.

When you go to your comments  you will see a SPAM box.  If you look at your  dashboard, there is a notice about the new SPAM filter.

So you might want to give it a try and turn off that identification word thingee that takes forever to do!

My friend Carol  at There’s always Thyme to Cook was big on those id words no matter how I begged her to turn it off.  She has, and reports no wonky messages!

Just a thought…:)

(now if I can only get my volume  control icon back so I don’t have to listen to music , I will be sooo happy!)

See these?

I borrowed them from The Tablescaper .  Last time we went shopping we stopped at the Dollar Tree.  She bought 12 of them, I resisted.  So she lent me 4 so I could do a table with them.  What a gal!

Remember these Monkey place card holders?  Wm Sonoma Outlet.  The leaf placemats too.

Last time I used those little monkeys I got several emails from brides to be asking where to get them to use for their weddings!  Really.  Well, they had them again this year.

I used to Lily stems as the looked like the leaf on the plates, as well as some green hydrangea  as the centerpiece.  I stuck it in a black leafy metal bowl from HG.

I used that green swirly flatware again, CTS 4.99 for 12 pcs by Gibson.

I was going to use those green glass banana/chili pepper bowls, but I used them Tues here, so enough!

 

I added the green Bee glass at the end, but it was bloody hot out there, and there were real bees hovering around!

The square white bowls are by Pfaltzgraff, and the black stemmed glasses are from there too.

Way too hot in the sun,

I am headed over to sit on the shaded part of the porch!

Coming soon…

I know sweet  Sue at Sullivan and Murphy is Falling into Fall, but it is still summer on LI, and will be for a few more weeks.

So I am working on this table, using white eyelet with a blue satin ribbon. It is in the shade so the pic is dark.

Don’t forget Jane at Blondie’s Journal is having a Target gift card give away!  Hope over and join in! I can’t wait to win it!  :)

And of course, Susan at Between Naps on the Porch has tons more tables for you to look at!

Thanks for visiting!
