mc crazy

My dear readers, I retract my grouchy gripe! You do give a hoot! God love you for responding to my whining so efficiently. The dining in NY post was appreciated by plenty, and I am truly grateful for all the emails and comments telling me so! I'm learning that different posts appeal to different readers, and that's ok. In fact, I was tickled by a comment exclaiming she loved the dining in NY post and couldn't care less about Mackenzie-Childs! Bottom line, I post what inspires me which is all I can do, and I hope I'm inspiring others in the process. 

Now, let's move on to the Mackenzie Childs crazy you should be expecting.

Oh dear Lord. Let me explain...

I have no idea what I'm going to use these for, but I love them. I may just leave one out on the counter and stare at it...

Now this was a fun find. I just love this wooden pig. I was planning to put my black and white check condiment dishes on it, and still may, but they suggested using one of the hors d'oeuvre trays on top, and I couldn't agree more!  Pattern: Taylor Fran

To the right, you can see the sugar shaker. I think that's what it's called. I won't be using it for sugar... just decoration. Pattern: Taylor: Hitchcock Field
