Tablescape Thursday at McDonald's

I love Tablescape Thursday -- This week I think I will repost a table from last year. Since we've all been in the "rooster" mode this week thanks to Shelia's Rooster & Hen party, I thought it was only fair to let the other barnyard friends in on the fun so...let's take a trip to McDonald's....No No! Not the golden arches....I mean McDonald's farm!



Ready for a country breakfast?



Old McDonald had a farm...E-I-E-I-O......



....and on his farm he has some roosters -- E-I-E-I-O....With a rooster here and a rooster there....




....roosters, roosters everywhere! Old McDonald had a farm E-I-E-I-O...



...and on his farm he had some hens -- E-I-E-I-O... with eggs over here and chicks over there... scrambled eggs....poached eggs....eggs just everywhere! Old McDonald had a farm E-I-E-I-O...



...and on his farm he had some pigs...E-I-E-I-O! With some big hogs here....



.... and some piglets there....bacon and sausage everywhere! Old McDonald had a farm ...E-I-E-I-O!



....and on his farm he had a cow...E-I-E-I-O...




...and the milk goes here....



....and the cream goes there....



...milk in old milk bottles everywhere! Old McDonald had a farm ...E-I-E-I-O!




....and in his garden he had some strawberries....E-I-E-I-O....



....with a cobbler here and jam over there...strawberries, strawberries everywhere! Old McDonald had a garden E-I-E-I-O!



It's always fun to have good friends like you at my table!



So.....how would you like those eggs today?



An overview of our country breakfast table.


Overview of the barnyard.



Old McDonald had a dog and Bingo was his name-o....B-I-N-G....oh....that's another song isn't it?

Hope you'll visit our hostess Susan at "Between Naps On The Porch" where you'll find lots of fun tablescapes this week...whether you're a city girl or a country gal --- you're sure to find one that suits your fancy. Hope you didn't mind a "second" trip to the farm!

See ya!

Roos around the house

I'm joining Shelia over at "Note Songs" for her Heart of The Home blog party -- all about the yard birds as she calls them. First up are my vintage salt & pepper roos (or perhaps hens).


Next is my pair of pot holder roos.



My wooden window roo is watching for the first light of dawn so he can wake up the household. Along with a little chick in training.



Here's my big boy roo -- he stands about 2 1/2 feet tall and is bigger than my dogs.



My laundry roo and hen.



Hand painted handsome guy.



Miss sittin' pretty.



Mr. Yankee Doodle Roo.



You've heard of Spring chicks.....well they certainly need a Spring roo!



How about a plate of roo?



Table top roos. You can see some roos on my wallpaper border too. (One of these days I'm getting rid of that -- it's been on my list since we moved in....almost 19 years ago *sigh*)



A little pitcher roo perfect for breakfast juice.



Mr. Spunkyroo -- he just looks like a dog -- but he's really a rooster in disguise waking me up each morning when the sun comes up.

Looking forward to seeing all the roosters, chicks and hens over at Note Songs. Thanks for a fun event Shelia!

I'm also joining the ever sweet Marty at "Tabletop Tuesday" on A Stroll thru Life --- these roos are not all on the table....but you know how those Roosters and hens are....just everywhere!
