I am sorry I only got to a few entries last week...my computer contracted a virus...I think I have it taken care of, finally.
Last week I had luncheon for a small group. The tablecloth was my inspiration.
For something different I decided to do red charger plates with green and white accents.
I used the Bordallo Pinheiro cabbage salad plates and a broccoli mug for the corn chowder.
The chowder was served from the cutest broccoli soup tureen. The plates, mugs and tureen were a gift from my friend, Jo Jo. I use them every chance I get!
The glassware is Ivima 1895 and the flatware is Oneida Louisiana.
I will be joining Let's Dish/Cuisine Kathleen.

Wow, what a fun tablescape. Didn't get the last one, therefore no comment. We finally have a night without humidity! bbb
Marigene, it's really pretty. Red and green are always pleasing. The tureen and mug are amazing pieces. Lucky you. Pretty table. xo marlis
I would use those gifts from Jo Jo every chance, too, Marigene. What fun to serve soup from that beautiful tureen and to eat it from those darling soup mugs!
Very pretty table, Marigene. That tureen is so cute! Lots of nice color too. Nice job!
Love the combo and not a trace of Christmas! Love the veggie accents, those mugs are perfect for the soup! xo
Mmmmm...corn chowder! I haven't had that in awhile. Sounds absolutely delicious!!! Having it served out of those super cute mugs was a great idea!
This table in no way takes on a Christmas flair even though the predominant colors are red and green. You did a really good job of using those strong primary colors without bringing an unintended feel of the holidays to the party.
Sorry your computer was sick. It SUCKS when that happens. I wish all these idiots out there producing and spreading these viruses would all jump off the edge of the earth!
Have a great weekend, and take care of yourself!!! Enjoy this extended "cool spell" we have going on! :-)
Beautiful! Love your tureen!
These colors remind me of the bounty from a really good summer vegetable garden...perfect for a summertime luncheon. That broccoli mug is wonderful! Thanks for inviting us for a peak. Cherry Kay
What a fun way to serve soup! Your pieces are adorable, I would use them every chance I got too!

Although you may think it is simple, it is so pretty. I know you take alot of time figuring out your weekly table settings. Gives me something to look forward to each week. Thanks for sharing them with us! Sue Z.
Oh Marigene, what a pretty lunch table! You just proved that red & green don't have to mean Christmas. I love your Bordallo Pinheiro plates and the broccoli mugs. I've never seen the mugs before!
Love those cheery sunflowers Marigene and I would use that cute tureen every chance I could get too :)
Love your table. Your cabbage wear is great, especially the tureen! Catching up from Let's Dish.
Marigene,
Oh, dear friend, I love, love, love this Sunflower Tablescape!!! The addition of the califlower tureen and cabbage leaf plates is stunning!!!
Now that I've finished photgraphing for the Let There Be White Challenge. . .I'm more than ready for some COLOR here on my side of the Prairie!!!
I do hope you're enjoying these cooler temps, rain and the continuance of GREEN on your side of the Prairie, too!!!
Thank you for this inspiring tablescape!!!
Fondly,
Pat
P.S. I've been missing your visits!!! Have you tried visiting my new blog???
This is wonderful Marigene. I love the cabbage dishes and the sunflowers say Summertime!
Red and green can be summertime too I love your dishes!
You know you had me at color! I think I used to have a tablecloth like that, and I miss it. As I recall, I used it so much I wore it out. Everything is put together so well, and I love the "vegetable" motif.
I love those green dishes!! I know your guests enjoyed the corn chowder, too. May have to make some soon myself! Have a wonderful week!
Love your special dishes from JoJo. The chowder sure sounds yummy!
Marigene, the red and green look perfect for your sunny tablecloth. Great idea! Love seeing your veggie pieces. ~ Sarah
Love the green dishes!
Nothing throws me into a frenzy like a computer problem!!
Gorgeous table and setting...I so love the tureen..it is just beautiful!
What wonderful gifts! The tureen is so pretty, and the idea of serving the chowder in those mugs is so clever. The green and red make a great summer time look with that fun tablecloth. laurie
