Holidays

Okay once again this has nothing to do with writing. BUT I thought I would entertain those of you who care. This year I am having my BIL, his new girlfriend, his 27 year old daughter and her new boyfriend, my best friend and her two children over. With the hubby that makes 9.
We have a table that comfortably sits 4. Can be made to sit 6. Hubby thinks we don't need a kid table for the children. (um, yeah, right) So, 7 adults at a table that you can squeeze 6. 2 kids in the living room - where we don't have a second table, don't have a coffee table, don't even have a large ottoman.
Tablecloths are burgundy -with a stain in the middle, or light green. I have 6 dark green napkins, 6 ecru napkins, 6 white napkins, 6 flowered napkins. 4 brass/silver napkin rings 4(which I can only find 3) silver star napkin holders.

Our dishes - a set of 8, one of which has broken, so a set of 7. (one of which has a chip underneath - that will be mine)

So, light green tablecloth, flowered and dark green napkins (cause of course the flowered napkins are DARK, and won't go with the white or the ecru)which I will alternate with alternating napkin rings.

Yes, I will somehow get a story out of this situation. I promise.
