Breakfast by the Shore

My hometown sits on the Northern coast of California - I can look out my back door and see Humboldt Bay (the second largest, deep water enclosed bay in the State.) So, it seems natural to set the table often with a seaside theme......

Dinnerware - "Aqua" by Thomsen Pottery from Ross two or three years ago
