Change Your Plates Ladies

IMG_6600

Years ago, on a shopping trip with my girls to the Fiesta Outlet in Canton,

I bought 12 Fiesta dinner plates in different colors.



At one point during that visit, all four of us were on different rows of the warehouse.

All I could hear was the clanking of plates,

that passed muster (no flaws),

as they were placed in shopping carts

by my daughters.



My mother and my aunts, all Fiesta aficionados,

would have been very proud.

In honor of the HEAT,

I switched out my daily dishes and started using my Fiesta plates.


Each day, when I reach in the cabinet for a plate

is a

NEW DAY.

I love the surprise.

Today it is turquoise at supper; tomorrow it may be red at breakfast.

Sprinkle salad greens on a pretty plate

Sprinkle greens with

feta, strawberry slices, craisens, and almonds

add avocado slices if you like

Drizzle with my boyfriend Paul Newman’s Balsamic Vinaigrette

(no, I am not drinking the stuff- I am just a tad addicted)

Start changing out your plates ladies!

Everyday is a

NEW DAY.
