It was my turn to host bunco last night. Here’s the spread I put together.
Cheese, crackers, salami, carrots, broccoli, snap peas, chips, dip, pasta salad, carrot cake, pie bites, cookies and grapes.
And now you can see why I made the 3 tiered serving tray! It was for bunco night! 
I don’t think much explanation is needed for this one.

Clear space = good.
Well my project is complete. I wasn’t able to use thae adorable tea set that was in the picture last week. Instead I used 2 of those lanterns I picked up at Rite Aid the other day. I liked them so much, I went back for a few more.
Anyhow, here’s the project. It’s a 3 tiered serving tray. The earthquake the other day tried to thwart my plans for having a new pretty serving tray, but everything is fine with it now.
It’s not exactly what I had in mind, but you wouldn’t believe how hard it was to find the “risers” I had in mind. Either way, I’m still pleased.
If you’re looking for instructions to make your own, head on over to Threadbanger for the directions.
When Jess falls asleep during the day, she falls hard. Yesterday I was on the phone with my grandma for a while, and when I came downstairs again, this is what I saw.
I begged her earlier in the day to take a nap so I could take one too. I was just so tired yesterday. She refused to even entertain the idea stating she was NOT tired. Not tired? I should have just forced her to lay down with me. Maybe I wouldn’t have been so cranky last night if I had.
Either way, her sleeping position made me smile, it’s just so odd.
In an effort to bring a bit of spring to our place, I changes out the red globes I had hanging here, and put up these beautiful springy glass lanterns in their place.
Total cost for the 4 of them? $6
Awesome, right? Get to Rite Aid NOW if you want some. They’re half off and won’t be around long.
Now I just need to pick up a pack of those flameless candles to put inside of them.
Oh and after I put them up, Jess tells me, “mom, I really like your designs.” apparently I’m an interior designer in her eyes just because I simply changed out the hanging glass.
