So on days like today, I love to make a pot of Chili to serve up hot and filling. Add a little salad on the side and what a great meal to ward off the cold weather.
I love these beautiful dishes that I found at Goodwill a few months ago. I nearly left them because they only had Soup bowls and salad plates. I'm so glad I decided to bring them home.Soup and Salad dishes - Mornay by Mikasa (Goodwill)
White Chargers - Westbury Court by PTS International (Home Goods)
Soup Tureen - Nortake (Antique shop)
White plates with silver rim - Royalton China (my Mom was given a place setting every time we bought gas at the Shell station many years ago. Do you remember those days?)

This is the classiest chili dinner I have ever seen. I am outnumbered by testosterone here at my place. Thanks for giving me more hope!
My friend Shirley and I were just talking today about how it was great chili weather - and look at you, I'm REALLY craving it now!! Beautiful table, too, my chili never looks that good, lol!
The chilly North winds have come here too! In this old house everything is cold! Love living in the south - it will be back up to the 60's in a couple days!
Chili is perfect for days like today - your table setting is wonderful! Thank you for sharing with A Return to Loveliness,
God Bless,

Great tablescape and the salad and chili look sooooooo good. Thanks for joining TTT. Hugs, marty
I love that covered tureen! Just lovely.
DH is the chili maker here, He makes it every year for the beach party we have here in our community. It feeds over 100! That's a lot of chili.
Yours looks very good!
Chili at a setting fit for royalty. I love that you use your mom's plates collected from the gas station give aways. I remember trips to the Green Stamp store with my mama when I was a little girl. Thanks for inviting us for a peak. Happy New Year! Cherry Kay
Cold....puh-leeze!!! :-) You know what, though? It has been quite nice here in the Midwest so far this winter. Today reached the upper 50s, and tomorrow is expected to reach the mid 60s. Woo hoo!!! We are SO happy!!! There has been no snow or ice to deal with, the furnace hasn't been running constantly, and we can actually run around in shirt sleeves! I know it's comin', but we are loving every minute of this nice weather right now! For the "cold" South right now, though, chili sounds just perfect! There is nothing that warms the soul (and the tummy!) quite like it. It is beautifully served (with that terrific salad!) on your new plates. Isn't Goodwill wonderful when you find great stuff like that? :-) Stay warm, and Happy New Year!
Chili just looks amazing in china! Love your new dishes too.. xo marlis
Your pretty china really makes a simple meal special!
Love it! I could hardly look at the dishes, though - your food looks so yummy! From the chili to the lettuce wedge salad, and the plate of chocolates, my oh my. What a great find on the salad plates and soup bowls. They really are lovely!
Oh, I love chili when it's cold...and your beautiful dishes! That's on my want list this year...some pretty dishes from the thrift store! ♥
The dishes are beautiful! And I really want to pull up a chair and sit down and eat! LOL Chili and salad is one of my favorite meals! YUM! Thank you for joining TTF and have a wonderful weekend!
Oh how pretty your new plates and soup bowls are! I got chili fixings tonight at the store....we just got back from Florida and it's soup making time here in Virginia!
