Fiesta-ing at the Dollar Store!

Last week, I wandered into our local Dollar Tree store,
and was smacked in the eyeballs with this display:

Great Caesar's Ghost!

If it isn't some great Fiesta-look dinner ware,

in brilliant colors, for a buck apiece. 

 Before this week gets much older, I'm heading back for some of this.

What happy summer time dishes!

I really like the shape of the bowls, nice and deep for ice cream.

Or, strawberries and cream.

Or, blueberries and Greek yogurt.

Or, just a pile of glossy sweet grapes!

 I'm not a huge fan of orange, but these dishes are irresistible.  Especially the orange.

I'm seeing a thrifty tablescape in my future.

Also last week, my friend Emily and I headed north for some antiquing.

Doesn't this old red door look as if it belongs on an old building in the French countryside?

 Nope, it's on an old New Jersey building, a closed Abbey.

More on the Abbey in another post.

Have a lovely day!  -- Cass

A little note:

Dollar Tree doesn't pay me for saying "Wow! Look what they've got!"

And also -- obviously these are not the genuine Fiesta ware dishes; they are knock-offs.

So I don't know how well they will wear, but for the price

they are fun and adorable and just in time for summer.
