Back when it was still spring of this year -- before the heat descended in a big, moist, hot blanket, I set up a table in the dining room using my Butterfly Meadow dishes. I do a table with these most years because I think they're just so pretty in the spring (and summer). If you are a regular reader here, you know we went to the beach twice in close succession, had a death in my family, and then Hal and I both caught Covid. The table just sat there languishing -- dishes in place, but no centerpiece. I thought about just putting the dishes away because I'd lost the initial spark to take pictures and write a post. But then, our new butterfly bush bloomed and my limelight hydrangea has about three times as many blossoms as last year, so I decided to make a centerpiece for the table and take pictures.
