Rodeo Time Table

This time of the year means rodeos and fairs in Humboldt County, CA. To celebrate, Pat set this week's table in a cowboy theme.

It's seems a bit ironic.....Cowboy dishes by Montana Lifestyles made in Thailand??????

Pat and I walked into Pier 1 recently and found eight of these on the "very on sale" rack....Naturally, they came home with us.

The detail is amazing on this figurine/doll.

Where it came from:
Wicker Place Mat - from the sale shelf at Pier 1 this year
Dinnerware - "Cowboy Reflections" by Montana Lifestyles from eBay
Bread/Butter Plate - "Chocolate" Fiesta(ware) by Homer Laughlin from Replacements.com
Flatware - "Iron Brown" by Noritake (I've owned this flatware for 40 years....it is really sturdy stuff!)
Red Glass - from the Ferndale Emporium (a local kitchen ware and gift shop)
Beer Pilsner - from Ross years ago
Napkin Ring - from Bed, Bath, and Beyond three or four years ago
Lantern - from Michael's three years ago
Figurine/Doll - from Richard Simmons' Annie Wahl collection (one of our Mother's dolls)
