A Photo a Day: My Daily Sustenance, Day 133

This is an early Mother's Day gift from son Derek and his lovely wife Margaret Ann.
What amazes me about this gift is this: I have been picking up spring-colored napkins and then putting them down every time I shop.  (I don't recall sharing this with Margaret Ann, but she knows me really well.  We are, after all, BFF!) I wanted the napkins, but I didn't really need to buy them.  An aside: My uncle got me started using cloth napkins decades ago.  He was a salesman who sold to retail stores and, thus he had samples.  One summer he gave me lots of the samples that were no longer being sold.  I have used cloth napkins ever since then. I had no spring colored ones, but now I do!  The beauty of the place mats are that I can use any color with them.  The mats, napkins and a lovely notepad were ensconced in a basket.  I love baskets too! Aren't I blessed?

This creation hangs in son and daughter-in-law's bedroom.  The people are their grandchildren. I know that this is cherished by Derek and Margaret Ann.
