lunch on halloween

Finally....Here is the Halloween celebration.....!  The table was set and the Gift Bags placed....
These very soft and adorable Orange Bears were a big hit!

And so were the flowers.....Plus.....I had found a very special cup that says it all!
"Ladies Who Lunch"! Who would have thought I would find such a lovely cup that actually said this? Below, a closer look at that darling Orange Bear.....
And then.....dear Dianne T. arrived as "The Mad Hatter"!
And there she is--"The Mad Hatter" eating some Jicima......Next came "Sugar"....well, Annie G., as 'Sugar'......
Here is a little Video of "Sugar".....!
  And there will be.......

More To Come.......



Note: On November 13th, 1970, I had my first "Smoke Free" day in 24 years. I started smoking at 16 years old. 
So, today....it is now 42 years that I have not smoked!  Yayyyy Me!

It's great to see that everyone has entered the spirit of the occasion too.

And well done for the non smoking!

You always decorate so darn cute. Love those cups the best. Just perfect for you and the "ladies who lunch".
How neat when people get into their characters.
Congrats big time on your smokeless anniversary. Way to go. I have 35 years of clean lungs. Only wish I had never started.
Looking forward to more to come.

A beautiful lunch party - as always - so perfectly put together.
I think the Mad Hatter looks gorgeous. Sadly I could't get any sound on the video but hats off to her.
Re smoking - you beat me by seven years. Well done!

Hi Naomi - It's been a while since I visited - I haven't been blogging lately; life has gotten in the way! All is well with us anyway. x

Ladies that Lunch. You know I love these posts, and I am sure most of your other readers do too. And fancy finding a beautiful with that printed on it! Too wonderful.

Hi Naomi,

Your luncheon table looks fantastic, including the beautiful floral arrangement.

I love the idea of the Halloween bags for everyone and that cup is superb, your little group gives the meaning to 'Ladies Who Lunch'!

YAY you is right. I quit at age 38, in 1977, and it is the best thing I ever did for myself.

Love the Halloween photos and costumes and the video is so funny!
