I think I just must have the peach pastry, yummmmmm.......
Had to have a warm fire this morning, even though it is Ca. it is a little chilly....
Cranberry Mimosa
Sugared berries and Pineapple ....
I am all set for Mr. S. (my husband) to have our breakfast ....
Theres nothing more wonderful than warm pastries and fresh fruit to go with the hot coffee and cranberry mimosa...yummmm
Love the fresh Oranges...
Of course the wonderful hot hot coffee is a must for the best breakfast...
Don't the strawberries and black berries and pineapple just look so wonderful with the kiwi....
The oranges and apple slices, really give it color...
I hope you have enjoyed the pictures of some of my faux food collection...it was fun arranging them ..
I think I am going to prepare a real breakfast for Mr. S...
The blue and white plate is Johnson Brothers and were left to me by my mom when she passed away, I love them...
I will make Mr. S some blueberry pancakes, his favorite....and some real fruit...
Thank you for spending some time AROUND THE HOUSE I hope you had fun. I love it when you visit and always appreciate your comments. Thanks Susan @ http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/ for hosting Tablescape Thursday

The only thing that gave me a clue was the sugar on those berries. I thought, nope...not real. I would love this breakfast, and I was thinking you were wonder woman to make it for your husband. It really was beautiful to look at.
ReplyDeleteSue
Ha! I was so dazzled by your photography that you fooled me with the faux food :) I was craving the custard pastries that I haven't eaten since I was a little girl.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by today to say hello!
The breakfast tray is so pretty with such wonderful colors.
ReplyDeleteI'd love a Cranberry Mimosa right about now!
Gosh, I was going to ask what time I should be over!
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by and commenting on my chairs....my husband has announced to our son that I am crazy with all of my "junk". Wait until he gets home tonight and sees what I did today tee hee....I'll have to post that tomorrow.
Well that looks great! I hope I didn't eat any of the faux fruit! :)

Do you mean to tell me that your fingers didn't even get sticky at all from that. Oh my...that was a cruel joke on yourself as I am sure those pastries would have been delicious. You sure fooled me. I could almost taste those pastries. Beautiful demonstration.
ReplyDeletecranberry mimosas sound great! I was inspired by your pumpkins and just painted 2 of mine - one black with white polka dots and the other all white and black checks...my porch looks so cute with them

I was reading and thinking...man, wouldn't it be wonderful to have all of that fresh fruit...then I read *faux*...FAUX!!!! It looks so REAL! I'm still wanting the fruit, especially the oranges ;o) Great spread BTW.
ReplyDeleteNow that food looks real and really good!! Fun setting by the fire. Are those mimosas real? :0)
ReplyDeleteLove the setting for this faux breakfast...

ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting Pandora's Box...I made "martha's" pumpkins last year...It was so much fun just popping the drill in and out. i put candles in them, but a strand of xmas lights would work, too...enjoy!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe they're faux!
ReplyDeleteI love the Johnson Brothers dishes. I use mine daily :)
- The Tablescaper
If I get this on a breakfast tray, it will have to be "faux" :)
ReplyDeleteYou've got some great faux food. My mouth was watering. Your fireplace is so pretty. laurie
ReplyDeleteHi Phyllis,
ReplyDeleteI just looked at the comments on my vinyl lettering blog and saw that you had a question about the window sticker.
If you would like to order this for your car all I need to know is the approximate size the sticker will go on. For instance, if you want it on the window then just measure how tall and how wide you want it. (Like 6" wide by 6" tall). Or if you want it for the bumper then maybe 15" wide by 2-3" tall.
I charge $7.50 plus shipping.
Let me know if you would like me to make one up for you.
Thanks,
Connie

Looks beautiful and delicious! Please stop by to see my Buttercrust Corn Pie recipe.
ReplyDeleteI also thought this was real food. I wanted to comment that you can bring me a breakfast like this any day of the year but I will skip this thank you.I like my real fruit and pastry's...LOL
ReplyDeleteYou gotta get up pretty early to fool me. Ha. I knew as soon as I saw the apples. It didn't stop me however from licking the computer screen because I haven't had my coffee or breakfast yet. You know that faux tastes as good as real when you lick the computer screen? It does.
ReplyDeleteummmmm, My kind of breakfast. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteWhat a civilized way to start the day. Everything looks spectacular. I hope you are having a great day.
ReplyDeleteWow, you sure have some stunning photos!
ReplyDelete:)

ReplyDeleteXO,
Sheila :-)
Hi Phyllis,
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you stopped by! Otherwise I may have never found your blog!
Your breakfast tray looks so delicious! I also checked out some of your pretty Fall decor, and just love how you painted your pumpkins too!
Thanks for becoming a follower! and now I'm becoming yours!!
Good Luck in the giveaway!
Sherri:)
I kept wondering about how you could so perfectly slice those oranges! Beautiful and I love your johnson bros plates! Thanks for visiting my blog!
ReplyDeleteAre you kidding me? Faux food - looks soooo real! Also, I enjoyed some of your past posts and noticed the French scene above the mantel - I have that same scene - love it! I'm a new follower to you, too! Linda
ReplyDeleteHi! Just wanted to stop by and thank you for visiting my blog and being a follower! You have great photos on your blog and I could have sworn that food was real!~Patti
ReplyDeletePs.(I am replying to what you said about your cat in a comment on one of my blogs). I am glad you have Tina--I know what you mean about a cat giving comfort. There is something I find so soothing about petting a cat and about a cat's affection. My cat loves to sit behind me in the evenings and he has to put one of his paws either on me or on my book...it is hilarious. And when we have family devotions he often meows when we pray (we call him, at times, Bishop Boots). If we mention his name he will meow at us and if we talk to him he will often meow back. He seems more like a person at times--perhaps a 2 year old one!! ha!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for visiting my blog and following. I laove your Sunday breakfast and enjoyed seeing you fall mantel decor. Looking forward to seeing more of your creativity! Blessings...Sherry
ReplyDeleteHi Phyllis,

Oh that is so funny that these are faux pastries! I was marveling at how absolutely gorgeous the pastries were and where in the world did you find such an awesome bakery that sold these decadent pastries!

Beautiful photographs and home. I've enjoyed visiting and thanks for adding me to you follower list. I feel honored.
ReplyDeleteWhew....what a relief. I was thinking that I'd never done anything so lovely for my hubbs...I was surely a rotten wife. :-) I think I could actually do FAUX!!! Do you think he'd notice?
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Spencer
Yummy...thank you for the nice comments you left on my blog and for becoming a follower...I just joined your blog too...see ya soon.
ReplyDeleteOkay, this had me in stitches!!! I totally though you were some beautiful cook (not that you're not). I was totally fooled. Love your blog! Thanks for stopping by, hope you like what you see and keep commenting, we love it!!!
ReplyDeleteteri @ acraftyclan.blogspot.com
Hi! I so love blue and white dishes and I know these are very special since they were your mother's. Lovely. I looked back over some previous posts and I must compliment you on your gorgeous porch scene--I particularly liked the idea of the black and white polka dot pumpkin! New to me - I may have to try that. And then your post of your autumn mantel scape is so lovely - I like the colorful picture you put up there - I lean mine against the wall too for easy changing. Even without any decorating I must say that the mantel you had built is magnificnt - just dreamy.
ReplyDeleteMy follower thingy is not working otherwise I would join you now. When it is fixed, I'll be back to sign up as follower. When you have a moment, stop by my new blog, Beauty and Blessings...

ReplyDeleteTotally scrumptious....xv
ReplyDeleteI was so getting ready to ask what bakery you got those from! Yum.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for becoming a follower and I will return the favor. I saw on your bio that you are in Fullerton. I was raised in there, went to Rosary HS, worked at both Disneyland and the Micheal's on Harbor, etc. It is indeed a small world:)
Just found your blog today. Love it! Your photos are beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteOkay that does it, I am moving in!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI just love all that yummy looking faux fruit!
