Jain @aquietgardenlife and Scott arrived with a beautiful bouquet of roses from her garden.
Our copper round table makes for a perfect setting so each guest can see each and chat.
Jain always insists on taking my photo. I try to get her to allow me to take her photo as well.
I set this table in purple and green. The flatware is Napoleon Bee by Horchow. The plates have lavender on them, which is my table theme.
Blueberry french toast, a fruit platter my friend June brought. stacked potatoes and 2 kinds of quiche.I baked banana bread cakes for each guest to take home.
Our lovely fountain flanked by purple petunias.
A fun brunch for all. Dining alfresco is so refreshing on a beautiful spring day.
I hope you all had a fabulous Mother's Day.
