My Life As A Middle Child - Putting Together The Pieces

It's Friday.... time for SPF

Once again, it's time for Stuff Portrait Friday. This is where we are sent on a scavenger hunt by the fabulous Kristine and are told to take pictures of items and post them. Due to Kristine having a blog party (and I wasn't invited), the equally fab Renee has agreed to host SPF this week.

The topic is eating, drinking and your trunk or something like that. Feel free to join in on the fun. After posting, make sure to hop over to Renee's site and let her know you played and also tell her what a great job she is doing while Kristine is out boozing it up.


1) My Dinner Dishes:


Here are my dishes. Yes, I did my kitchen in grapes. The theme is ~ Italian Cafe




OK, while those are the dishes I break out when company comes, these are the dishes we normally eat off of. Paper plates, plastic cups and plastic bowls.

2) My trunk with it's junk:


Here is a picture of the cargo area of my vehicle. A stroller and a floppy seat cover. Yes, I don't carry much else with me, as I need room for those shoe purchases. LOL

My favorite adult beverage:

Now, for the drinking part. I love Margaritas, Strawberry daiquiris and Pina Colodas. Right now Jose is the only one I have in the house. He's even better with a splash of Midori Melon thrown in. (If you notice, there isn't much left of him either.)

Thanks for stopping by... have a great Friday!

I'm first! I'm First! hehehe

Anyway, you and I are so alike with Jose! Humm, sounds more like a 3 some - ewww!! Must. Put. That. Out. OF. My. Mind.

Okay, that's better.

Shoes must take priority over all else. Why so you think I hava a truck. Plenty of room for those shoes!

You already know, but I do love the dishes!

You are a girl after my own heart. I LOVE the grape dishes. My kitchen is done in wine bottles and grapes. Where on earth did you find those?? Must. Get. Some.

We, too eat off of paper plates. We even drink out of plastic cups. Someday, I will train them to eat with plastic forks/spoons.

I wonder if they make disposable pots and pans?

I really like the Italian set! Those are really neat looking.

Thanks for sharing your "stuff" with us!

Square plates with grapes - would have never thought of that, but I really like them! Love Margaritas too - hate washing out the blender!

I played - Happy Weekend!

"Jose Cuervo you are a friend of mine, I like to drink you with a little salt and lime...."

Fun guy, but can kind of be an asshole.

LOVE the grape plates!

I lllove your grape dishes! I would eat off those everyday. But if you look a my dishes that might not really be a good idea if you are a breaker like me.

I don't believe you really have kids...that trunk is too clean! :)

My last kitchen/house was done in grapes! :)

This one is done as a CoffeeHaus... of course. hee hee.

Your trunk surprised me... I thought it would be messier! Bah ha ha ha ha.

EA - Yes, put that out of your mind immediately!!! Shoes are definitely top priority in my life. (right behind Doodlebug)

Renee - Seems to be plenty of Jose going around. We should all meet up some day and have a big ol Margarita fest. Thanks for hosting!

Crayonz - Yup, Kohls. Love that store.

mmc - I will be by to check out your stuff. Thanks for coming by my site.

teh - the dishes came from Kohls. The good news is that they not only come in ceramic, but also in plastic. (I have them in both as I normally make my guys eat off paper or plastic.) Hmmm sounds like a grocery store. ha We actually drink out of plastic disposable cups, but I ran out of them that day.

Let me know if you find pots and pans, I'm with you on that one too.

lynn, lori, soozieq, kelly & spoil girl - Thanks for stopping by and for the compliments. I will check out your stuff as soon as I get my act back together.

mama duck - I have no problem with Jose. Sorry he is so mean to you. However, your friends Jim and Jack are real assholes to me. I guess we can't all get along huh.

lucky lum - That's why I bought them in plastic as well, so that we could actually use them more and not be concerned about breaking them. (My dishwasher is 17 and didn't always take the best care of my items... it's the teenager. hahaha)

katherine - I have a 17 yr old and a 7 mo old granddaughter. Yes, it is that clean as my teenager loves to clean cars. I don't question it, I just thank god that someone cleans up my veh. If it makes you feel better, the back seat has all kinds of Doodlebug toys on it.

Merrit - Coffeehaus... I should have known. Do I sound like a slob? hehehe

katy - go for it girl. I actually bought my stuff for a year and packed it in the basement and then brought it all out and decorated. It was like Christmas just for me!!
