My friend Debjani and I wanted to do something together. But it was cold outside so I suggested for her to just come over and we can make jewelry and then do karaoke afterwards. I told her I will prepare brunch.
And so did I! I made a veggie egg casserole, Belgian waffles and served some cheese buns and hard boiled eggs.

I already had the rooster tablecloth on the table so I just decided to add my rooster plates and accessories. See the cabinet on the wal? I bought it from Nancy (Nancy's Dish) and I love it but I did not get done filling it with dishes. I wanted to install lights in it but the lights that I like have to be ordered.
We bought the candle holder from Cozumel, Mexico.
Teapot set is by Fitz and Floyd. Love the bird finials. I am still looking for a creamer to complete the set so if anyone finds one, please let me know. I bought whatever I found available at TJ Maxx but they had no creamer.

The waffles were so good. I used Krusteaz mix which I brought from Florida because I cannot find it anywhere here. I think it is the best mix. I have a commercial Kitchen aide waffle maker similar to the ones they use in hotels but mine makes 2 waffles at the same time. I love it! I should have taken a picture but I forgot.
I thought this chicken wire basket should qualify for Thrifty Thursday. I bought it from a consignment shop for $8. It's sturdy and well made.
Do you see the white hen egg holder? The little chick in front of it is a salt shaker. Isn't it cute? This should qualify for thrifty too. I think I bought it for $3.99 from Ross. It holds 5 eggs.
John even surprised us and came home for lunch. He must have smelled the food, lol. 
Vanna, do you recognize the sugar shaker? I bought it from the antique shop in Seattle when were shopping. It has a silver top but I cannot remember how much I paid for it. Not much or I would not have bought it.
And yes, we made jewelry afterwards and even got to sing for a short while. I made this pearl bracelet for my sister.
to match this necklace that I made and already sent to her. I thought it would be nice for her to have a matching bracelet too.
Thank you all for your visits and thanks to our gracious hostesses, Susan, Leigh, Michael and Linda.

What a fun time you must have had. Love those waffles! And the jewelry is beautiful. Roosters on the table always stir up some fun!
I think this whole table is great and would love to pick the entire thing up and put it in my kitchen. It's all perfect, from the tablecloth on up.
I really love that teapot and set. Hope you DO find the creamer. I'll keep my eye out while I'm on "the hunt" for more kitchen things.
And I love the candle holder too.
Christine, you were a busy lady cooking, tablescaping, and making jewelry. LOL I have the same WS rooster cloth. It's a favorite. Fun to see you use it with different dishes. Beautiful table and meal. ~ Sarah
Christine! I wanna live close to you and be your in person friend! What a wonderful table and you know how I love those Roosters! The tablecloth and everything else, the food! Oh, yummy!
You're amazing.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Roosters are beautiful!!! A very pretty tablescape..lovin it!!!
Love your table...anything with roosters is #1 with me...I have the napkins that go with your tablecloth!
Oh, my, gosh, Christine! The colors, the chickens and the REAL food. I wish I was there with you guys to actually taste everything.
Thank you so much for stopping by to say hi and other nice things. It looks like we were both of like mind this week with the chickens/roosters.

You two have the best time! And how beautiful is that brunch!! Christine you really are the QUEEN of the table! And it's not just a pretty picture either (which it is) it's totally functioning. So many times I see tablescapes that aren't at all realistic for an actual meal kwim? Just a bunch of impressive china stacked up. I DID recognize that shaker! Saw it and loved it right off! I think you paid something like $8? I remember it was a good price. Also I now know what I can send YOU! Got lots of Kursteaz here! *winks* Vanna

I was highly entertained as I lingered reading your blog and enjoying each of the photos. Roosters are something that I adore. I am needing some rooster dishes and really like yours. I will look at out TJ Maxx and see if we have a rooster creamer for you. I don't recall seeing any last week when I visited. I am going to follow your blog and hope you will drop by to visit me and my new blog. Loved your table and your food looked so yummy!!!
Oh Christine, your table looks gorgeous and the FOOD looks so wonderful! I wish I could come over!!!! I love those rooster plates they are the prettiest I have seen. I have to go back and see where you got them. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog!!!!! Have a great weekend. XO, Pinky

Everything was so gorgeous. I loved looking at all your photos.
I sure wish I lived closer to you! Girl, you can cook! Everytime you do a food display it looks so delicious. Your friend was one lucky lady. I love how combining the rooster with the yellow serving pieces makes this setting so warm. It is so inviting!
Everything looks yumi sweet Christine...I love that casserole. Your friend is so lucky to have you, boy, everything looks delicious!!! I love the rooster and all your yellow pieces, it's all so cozy and so warm...wish I was there.
You're such a special lady Christine, you have so much "joy of vivre"...French, hope I spelled it right!
Have a great weekend.
Love you.
