    OA, your table is wonderful!!! Your creativity came shining through again. Who da thought an individual cereal box could become such a cute dragon head? Only You my dear.

    Couldn't find Lucky Bamboo, no problem you figured it out and used Bamboo Garden Stakes. We've missed having you here sharing all your fun posts you come up with.

    BTW, besides a napkin, I will need some flatware, please. Never could master chop sticks! DGD (age 6) loves to eat with them. But then her favorite place to eat is HuHot.

    This was such a fun table. Hope we'll be seeing more of you.

    Yes! I hope you were able to do 'take-out' ... if the cook was busy, that is! I really like how you did the banner up w/your 100 yr-old teacher supplies! (LOL!) And those bamboo garden sticks look great! What fun! Your cereal boxed fire-breathing dragoo is 'hot!' Love it! Looks like the GrKids' will have a great Chinese New Yr! Great bold colors... R&Blk! TFS, OA! Jeanne S.

    Not to worry, Marlene. We got takeout at Panda Express. I'm no cook, that's for sure!

    Punk,
    I'm always amazed that little kids love Chinese food. It's coloring and texture is so different from our usual fare. Still, my granddaughters would eat it for breakfast, lunch, AND dinner.
    I don't live by a HuHut. Do they do the stir fry in front of you?

    OA, they do grill your selection in front of you at HuHot. DGD and her dad go to HuHot while DD and I attend meetings. I've never eaten there but been to Benny Hanna's (one of DB's favorites) and I'm sure it's similar. Loved how they flip shrimp in your mouth while cooking.

    Oh my old mind forgot to mention your 100 yr-old teacher supplies! Thanks Jeanne for the reminder. Lady, you crack me up and need to stay here and help entertain. U do very well for your age!!!
