It is the 31st Tablescape Thursday and Susan at Between Naps on the Porch is our gracious hostess. Be sure and visit Susan here if you want to join in on the fun.
Margo set a beautiful table with her husband's grandmother's china. Everything looked lovely.
Another friend of Brook's brought this beautiful birthday fruit tart from Bailey's in Beverly Hills. I must tell you, it was as deliscious as it looks.
I made these Eiffel Tower sugar cookies and they were a big hit. I should have taken the celophane off before taking a picture, but I wasn't thinking.
This past week I went to a birthday luncheon for my dear friend Brook, who I've known since the fifth grade. I thought I would share the tablescape that was set by the hostess Margo who graciously offered to throw my friend Brook a birthday luncheon.

Below is a picture of the birthday girl on the left and another dear friend from grammar school on the right. We will have our 40 year high school reunion in September. Don't they look fabulous!
There were sweet little notebooks with pens on each guests plate. They came in handy to, because we all shared our e-mail addresses and phone numbers before leaving the party.

Everything looks just lovely. I especially like those cookies. Last year for our church's Mother's Day tea, we had a Paris theme and I made Eiffel Tower suckers from pink chocolate! Wish I'd had your cookie cutter and done the cookies.
