Grass is a quite the topic of conversation lately.
Not that type of grass.
Easter grass.
Which do you prefer, plastic or living grass Easter basket?
A long time spring and Easter tradition involves a run to our local feed and seed store.

The latter purchase results in a bumper crop of live Easter grass.

I hope it makes a full recovery.
Exteriors lead to interiors, and next up in my Easter entertaining plans is the tablescape.
I’ll share my ideas and suggestions with you all midweek.
Enjoy your Monday.
