Light and Airy Chinese New Year's Tablescape

Hi everyone!  I have always loved pretty dishes.  How about you?   When I was in college, my roommates bought me a four-piece placesetting of these (the blue foral Asian dishes) and I bought myself another.  These dishes could tell many stories of happy Chinese meals eaten throughout the years.  I used them HERE when I just began blogging last year.

There's a blowing wind and really cold temperatures outside so a warming Chinese food sounds good tonight.  We are having homemade egg rolls and stir fry.  My husband is a huge fan of stir-fry and, in his ideal world, he would like to eat it five nights a week; my kids are not such huge fans.   Here is the individual placesetting.

It's such a pretty light and airy, pattern.  The rice bowls are also decorated inside the bowl.

A lovely tea set came along in the pattern.  We are more hot chocolate drinkers, but I just love the tea cups.

Here's an angled view of the plates.  The chopstick rests are so cute and convenient.  Don't worry, I have included flatware also!

When I use bubble glasses, I always include a picture of them.  I like the look of the bubble glasses and the silver candlesticks.

A side shot of the table.  I like using the little sauce dishes -- so tiny and petite.

Ooops, I forgot to put the napkins on!

The egg rolls are hot and ready to eat.

Yum!  Let the feasting begin!  Four on a plate must mean it's my teenage son's plate!

Thanks for stopping by and I wish you a Happy and Prosperous New Year!
