We had a beautiful weekend here in So. Cal (sorry all my friends from back east) it was 75 and just perfect for sitting in the back yard. Signs of spring are everywhere. As I was watching the news, they said we would be having rain by Wed. I decided to take advantage of the beautiful day and set the table outside on the patio. The little cloth on the table is a remnant from JoAnns.

The dish ensemble is from HomeGoods. They had these cute little nests for spring, so I picked up a few.




We had chicken salad sandwiches, chips, fruit and homemade chocolate chip oatmeal cookies. MMM good.

But the best part of this tablescape is that my two best friends could share it with me!! Cynthia and Annette joined me for lunch today and it just went by too fast!!

There's nothing better than lunch outdoors with good friends.
Hi Janie! This is truly my style, I love the outdoors and your tablescape is oh soooooo beautiful! Your friends really looked as if they really enjoyed being there. Deb
I love this table! How fun. I love to see what different gals do with nests and Easter decor. Your spring time table is just beautiful to look at and love the table remnant from Joann's. Don't you just love that store? Woohoo.
Everything looks amazing.

Looks like a wonderful day and tablescape, just lovely!
Lovely choice for today. I love your dishes; I didn't find anything that cute at my Homegoods here!
Have a great Thursday!
Great table, send some of that weather to us in rainy Washington!
Love your little touches, nests and all, looks so fresh.
Yummy food too, glad you had fun!
We are trying to get HomeGoods here, we just finally got Marshalls close to me and that is dangerous enough, LOL!

I just loved your Tablescape Thursday. What a perfect setting. You really did a fabulous job. How nice you could share it as well. It will be awhile before I’ll be tablescaping outdoors. We were lucky to hit 50 today.
What a lovely outdoor setting. So fresh and pretty! I'm usually in Southern California but right now I'm in the Seattle area enjoying the rain :0)
WoW! I love your tablescape! I love birds'eggs in decor and nests...it's just so spring! Thanks for sharing!
Love all the egg-filled nests. I'm gonna have to try out that Home Goods store. Never been, but I hear great things about it. Your whole tablescape for today is just lovely. And the lunch sounds yummy, too. Yes, the weekend in So. Cal. was beautiful, wasn't it. Have a great weekend.

P.S. I entered a wrong url, which brought up last week's tablescape. (I'm a total dunce when it comes to computer stuff) So, if you have a chance, click on the new one.
Gorgeous outdoor table setting. Those are great plates from HG (don't you just love that place?!) Linda
Oh, I'm so jealous of your spring weather in Cali. It is still freezing here in Michigan.
Thanks for coming by my blog and leaving your kind comment. I am so glad that I found your blog. Your tablescape is so beautiful. Love the birds nest addition to each place setting. All the colors and items you used here are some of my favorite things too.
Very pretty! Looks so nice and warm! Can't even think Spring yet here...and first here's St Pat's..
Love the table.
I love all of those nests full of eggs. This is such a lovely tablescape. The food looks good too! And all of that green grass makes me so jealous! I really like the way you used the nest on top of the urn as a centerpiece. Love your rooster too. laurie
Good food, good friends, beautiful table...it doesn't get much better than that! This is one of my favorite tablescapes this week. The nest on the urn is sooo creative. Absolutely love it!
Ohhh... I love the bird nests!! This is just gorgeous!!! Have a great week!...Debbie
Looks like a LOVELY outdoor gathering!
