I like the theme for your luncheon. Definitely pretty in pink with your cute cloche surrounded by the garland, as well as those pretty dessert cups and sugar/creamer.

What a darling "Ladies Who Lunch" plate! Is that where you got the name of your blog? Or was it the other way around, first you named the blog, then you found the plate? So cute! I love how the lime in the water glass speaks to the green on the plate. Nice detail!
