<span style="font-size: large;">I know it's early but it's terribly still hot and humid here in Florida. Maybe blogging with fall colored Polish pottery will make me feel cooler. Wishful thinking?</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> Anyway, I pulled out my Polish pottery plates with orange in them, which I think make them somewhat fall-ish.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> Isn't this server/baker pretty? I love it! It's probably the most expensive single Polish pottery I bought, but I couldn't resist. I swore to myself after we moved to Florida and downsized, that I wouldn't buy anymore. But, this pandemic is making me crazy and bored and it forces me to browse and watch live polish pottery shows. Their beauty is just so enticing and I really cannot blame myself cause I am but just human.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Besides, I don't go anywhere so I save a lot from not buying clothes, shoes and makeup, lol.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Her mom and I did zumba until 2 weeks before Avery was born. In the beginning, the baby could not sleep and just cried. We had to dance with her and do lunges continuously while holding her, before she could fall asleep. It was very tiring. Good thing, we were 4 people who took turns, her mom, dad, big brother and me.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> These stemware are Polish pottery too. I saw them in Seattle at the marketplace. Did I enjoy browsing at that PP store! Hubby just had a medical meeting there and we happen to stumble upon the store while exploring the city. I bought 9 (1 extra, in case I break one, according to John). I had them shipped to the house because I was afraid to break any during the flight.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">It's been a while since I blogged about my travels, so do not be surprised if I am blogging about a trip we took in August of 2015. I just realized it is easier for me to find pictures that I want by searching on my blog, but of course they have to be there first. So, since I am staying home due to the Covid 19 pandemic, I know I have more time to blog. I am therefore, restarting to blog about travels, my intent is to archive my travels and travel photos so I can easily access them. They will not be in order, I hope you don't mind.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> We were so fortunate to be there during their most important and popular holiday, St. Andrew's Day, who is their patron saint. There were people everywhere, just walking around. Vehicles were blocked so we were able to walk around safely. Festivals were everywhere, food, parades, processions, music, entertainments, you name it!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> We took a Viking River Cruise on the Aegir stopping at various countries and Budapest was our last stop. where we checked into the Marriott's Hotel overlooking the Buda Castle across the Danube River, and stayed there for 2 days.

<span style="font-size: large;">First of all, I would like to thank our servicemen for all that they do for us and for our country and for keeping us safe. Thank you so much! You are all very much appreciated.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Now, let's go to the tablescape. I decided to use the plates that my sister Fe gave me many, many years ago. I spotted them in the garage and the bin was labeled, 4th of July, so it was easy for me to access them. Unfortunately, I am still not organized in the garage so it's not that easy for me to find the dinnerware that I want to use sometimes.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This is my first tablescape on this new old table that I just bought. I bought the whole set, round table and 7 chairs for $99. I painted them afterwards and you will see the newly painted ones in the last pictures.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> We used to have a square table with 4 chairs here. If you have read my blog in the past, you would know that my daughter and her family live next door and that we alternate preparing dinners, so every other day, all seven of us eat here. The 3 grandkids used to eat on the kitchen counter but now we get to all eat together.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This is the set that I just bought before I painted it. It is solid wood and in perfect condition. I told John that this set really belongs to us because I couldn't believe we were able to fit all these pieces in the back of our SUV. Also, when advertised, it said table with 6 chairs. The seller loaded the chairs while I rearranged them to fit in the vehicle and did not really count them but when we unloaded them, there were actually 7 chairs, so again, perfect for us.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I started with a fluted silver plate charger, topped with a turquoise dinner plate, a set I bought from Homegoods while visiting my mom in Illinois a few years ago, and layered with oval grey "CMG" Portuguese salad plates and soup bowls. The pattern name is "Sari". I had bought these from Horchow many years ago. I love the ruffled edges of the bowls and the subtle design on the plates.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I even found a similar design on the napkins from Pier 1, also from a few years back. Most of my tableware have been accumulated from many years back, since we have downsized quite a bit and I pretty much stopped buying, due to major shortage of storage space.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I titled this blog "8 Days of Christmas" because I only have a table good for 8 people. Actually, I have 12 Days of Christmas salad plates.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I hope you are all enjoying this Christmas season! December is going way too fast and pretty soon, Christmas will be here. Are you all ready? I am, and my presents are all wrapped and under the tree.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have a tablecloth and napkins matching these salad plates, but I couldn't find them at first so I used a plaid one. And of course, I located them as soon as I completed setting the table, but I was not about to take it apart to replace the tablecloth.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">It's been a while since I had a tea party with the grandkids who live next door. It's been a while too since I blogged. I think I have just been lazy and been goofing off too much. Anyway, they have been bugging me to have one, so I promised we will have one on Saturday when they are off school. Saturday came and they called so early to find out what time we were having it. They must have really missed our tea parties, lol.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It is finally cooling off somewhat here in Florida so I decided to hold it outside. Reese is always excited to help me pick what tea set to use and I welcome the help very much.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">My tea cups that match the Alea set are in the garage and I was too lazy to dig, instead, I used my Henriot Quimper cups and saucers, that are more easily accessible, since I store them in the dining room china cabinet. I think the colors blend nicely.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">In case some of you do not know, my mom passed away on May 23, 2018, two months and a day short of her 100th birthday. We had services held in Illinois and then we had her body cremated so that I and my 2 sisters along with my granddaughter, AJ, took her ashes with us to the Philippines to be buried next to my father.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">We had a wake in our <span id="goog_504156839"></span><span id="goog_504156840"></span>ancestral home, mass and then burial. We were so surprised as to the crowd of people who paid their respects, considering that all her colleagues have long been gone and we really did not have any formal announcements there except for what I have written on FB. The house was packed with people with no parking space left on the ground.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I had entered this on my blog hoping to publish it in a few days from then, but my mother got ill and we had to fly to Illinois to see her, but she passed away so fast that we did not see her alive. We are thankful that she went peacefully and not suffer. She was tired. She was 2 months short of her 100th birthday. Rest in peace, mama. I love you always and forever! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I can't believe my baby is 37 years old! Geez! Where has the time gone? Anyway, she was hosting a baby shower at 2 PM so I decided to have an early luncheon to celebrate her birthday with her family and our close German family friends, Todd, Stephanie and Isabel.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I got so busy that I forgot to take pictures, but trust me, we had a lot of fun eating and conversing over the table.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> This was how the table looked before the food and the flowers on the vase were placed.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I opted to use Polish pottery because the dishes are the easiest for me to access, since they are one of my everyday dishes and they are easily accessible. I am not used to hosting luncheons which do not give me enough time to prepare, compared to dinners when I would have pretty much all day.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Although we won't be spending Easter here, I decided to set the table for the special occasion. We will be spending the holiday with my daughter, Rochelle and her family. We will have an Easter egg hunt there on Sunday and it will be fun to watch the grandkids having so much fun. What better way to celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus than be with family. My neighbor and daughter Tina and her family will be there too. and I am sure my son and DIL as well.</span></div>

Mon.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We were in Illinois for my mother's 99th birthday when all over the news, Hurricane Irma kept juggling between hitting E or W of Florida last August but actually, because it was so huge in diameter, something like 500 miles, neither coast could escape it. We live in SW Florida. Anyway, at the end, it decided to target the SW and we were right in the center. We were scheduled to fly on Friday but because they were mandatory evacuating our area, my daughter who lives next door advised us to postpone our trip. They did not want to worry about us too if we were home. And we stayed in Illinois, eyes pinned on the TV news the whole time.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My daughter and her kids drove to the north part of FL where my other children and her in laws live. They made a reservation in a Georgia hotel but because of the enormous traffic and gas shortage, they decided to stay in north FL. Her husband stayed behind to finish bolting our windows and a friend's windows, whose hubby passed away months before and securing all the loose stuff on our front and back porches, but when the sirens started going on Saturday, he drove, taking the friend and her son along, to join the rest of his family. The drive took more than twice as long but they made it.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I kept praying non stop while glued on TV and asked all my friends to pray for us too. Well, Sunday came and the hurricane hit but moved a little east. Prayers answered!! But because it was very wide, it still went through us. We have 2 big trees in the backyard. The taller shade tree split from its base and landed right unto our pool enclosure. The fig tree uprooted.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Still, we considered ourselves very lucky because only some soft end limbs of the tree hit the roof above the family room so it was not damaged. However, almost half of the pool cage was damaged.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> We considered ourselves very lucky too because they were predicting that we might have 15 feet surge of water and I was imagining coming to a home with floating furniture. When my son in law finally got home, checked the house, sent pictures and reported the damages to us, I cried thanking God because it was not as bad as we expected it to be. We did not even have any flooding outside. None of the garden furniture got damaged.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> The door, the aluminum and screening where the tree fell, all tumbled down. My papaya tree split in half and what a mess! We came home the following Friday and this is what we witnessed. There was no need for us to come sooner because we had no electricity for at least 4 to 6 days and my daughter emptied and threw away all my food from the freezers and frig. so our house would not stink when we got home. I was scared to go on the back porch because the pool was black, imagining snakes and alligators in it, lol</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The first thing we did was hire 2 men to cut the tree and haul it away to the curb. It took a lot of calling and getting estimates at first because some of them suggested we need a truck with a forklift to pull the tree up to not damage the pool. But these young men were confident, they can do it, cutting the tree from the top little by little. They worked so hard and did such a good job that we paid them $100 more than what they quoted us and fed and continuously hydrated them.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The pool looked terrible. It had leaves and branches probably many inches high at the bottom. There were frogs croaking everywhere. One FB friend suggested I buy some discs against mosquitoes so I did and threw them all over the water. They worked because we had no mosquitoes in spite of this stagnant water and an open deck.</span> </div>

<span style="font-size: large;">We could not get the pool cage fixed because there were no screens nor aluminum to be found anywhere. Even Amazon ran out. We left in December to stay with my mom in Illinois again because she got sick (she is well and home now) and came back here last month. It was only then that I resumed taking care of the house, calling for estimates. I didn't tell you yet but our roof above the toilet room in the master's bath was damaged too from strong winds and water was leaking there. I just placed a towel and garbage can to protect the floors when we went to Illinois. We had that fixed first as soon as we got home.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> We chose a pool cage company who sent 3 men, just last week. It took them 2 days but they repaired it successfully and we are so happy. Unfortunately, our deductible is very high to save money on premiums. The insurance company quoted us below our deductible, even though we have already spent way more than that so every expense came out of our pockets. That sucks :-( </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I have been AWOL for a while. John and I were in Illinois for over a month because my 99 and a half year old mom got ill but thank God she recovered and is home with my sister now. I am just so glad to be back home to sunny Florida. It was so cold in Illinois and I was hibernating there. I did not want to go out. I was not used to that kind of weather.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I took a picture of my mom before I left. Doesn't she just have the nicest complexion? At 99.5 years old, she hardly has any wrinkles. I hope I inherit that trait of hers.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Because we were not home for Christmas, we could not give our presents to our children and grandkids. We decided to have a Christmas brunch with my next door daughter and her family and have exchange gifts afterwards.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> I thought silver and blue would be appropriate in January, so I pulled out my Spode blue dishes that come in different pattern.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">As I was at Homegoods in Illinois, I spotted a set of Spode blue goblets in boxes. Yes, I made an exception of going out even in the cold, when it involved Homegoods, lol, and going to church of course. They came 4 in a box and luckily they had 2 available. I could not believe the price, $4.99/box of 4. The cashier could not believe it either when I was paying. I couldn't pass that out so I decided to put them in my hand carry when we flew home.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">We are from Florida and it really does not snow there but we have been in Illinois since Dec. 9 because my 99 year old + mom was ill. Thank God she recovered and is home now.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Anyway, it snowed on Christmas eve just in time for a white Christmas</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I was dreaming of doing a tea time table on the snow and how cool the photos would be with the surrounding snow. I thought I would never have another chance if I did not do it now, so I searched for tea things that I could use from my sister's cabinets and this is what I came up with: an old Asian cast iron tea set. And what better centerpiece to use than a bonsai tree for an Asian table?</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have been in Illinois for over a week because my almost 100 year old mom has gotten ill and was in the hospital. We were already advised to get her Hospice care but lo and behold, she recovered and is home now and is back to normal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I am still here nursing her back to health and I am kinda missing tablescaping. So, I dug out Christmas plates and other stuff from my sister's cabinet. Look what I came up with!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Now, we are ready for our Christmas eve dinner!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Gibson dinnerware. The pattern looks so familiar. I think it is the same pattern as the Christmas set I gave my daughter, Tina, which was also given to me by a friend in Natchez, Bhel. But I have so many Christmas sets so when she asked me for one, I gave this, since I knew exactly where it was in the garage. And besides, I can always borrow them if ever I want to use them cause my daughter lives just next door. I am very happy for her to be the one to store them since I have run out of storage.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Thanksgiving is now behind us and we are now looking forward to Christmas. I hope you all had a nice one and you got to spend it with family.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">John and I spent it with his side of the family and were stuffed with delicious food. My 3 kids all had a different plan for Thanksgiving Day so they all decided to come over the weekend after to celebrate with us with a luncheon on Sunday. By then, we were all turkeyed out so my son suggested for us not to prepare turkey anymore, instead, he would bring fish and will cook it. He also cooked noodles and my son in law grilled some pork, chicken and shrimp. My other daughter made a veggie casserole. I got to take a break from cooking which was so nice. I just set the table and prepared a tea party for the kids for dessert on the back porch.</span></div>
