Merci beaucoup to Beth @ Food as Art

I entered Beth's giveaway at Food as Art and WON!!!!! The prize was a Johnson Brothers Old Britain Castles pink platter, courtesy of CSN Stores. Isn't it lovely?  I can't wait to use it. I have some vintage pink candle sticks I got as a wedding gift over two decades ago that will go perfectly with it. Once I get the platter I'll take a picture of them together so you can see for yourself.

If you haven't visited  Food as Art it is a lovely blog with delicious recipes and lovely table settings, complete with floral arrangements. I am looking forward to trying the Chocolate Chip-Toffee Scones she served for tea. Beth also Blogs at Beyond the Garden Gate, which is where I first met her.

 Today was spent outside weeding the bulb bed. (Sigh) I had just finished weeding around my Tiger Lilies when Hubby accidentally mowed them down with the weedeater. So I spent a lot of time weeding around them for nothing. I have my fingers crossed they will come back up but I think it is too late in the season.
