It's a WONDERFUL treat for YOUNG and OLD alike..and especially the OLD with a YOUNG ATTITUDE !!
Does BLACK and WHITE, with a touch of PINK, seem fitting for 
I HOPE SO !!
We'll call it....
a BLACK and WHITE ICE CREAM AFFAIR...
*
What's a chicken doing here ?? 
This adorable BLACK and WHITE polka dot pitcher came all the way to WEST TEXASfrom THE LITTLE RED HOUSE...that's the one that's run by our friend, MARY....I filled it with the faux PINK flowers that I love so much..
SHELIA..can you REALLY love Faux Pink Flowers ?.......Why, you bet your little "don't have to water 'em", you can !"
**
I have used my BLACK and WHITE many...M.A.N.Y. times thru the years of blogging.
*
I am REALLY challenged to come up with something different looking
week after week...
I really don't have all that many dishes..
so...I find myself mixing and matching...
mostly MIXING !
**
You will see LOTS of BLACK AND WHITE POLKA DOTS, STRIPES AND CHECKS...just all mixed in together and probably looking pretty RANDOM at times....
but, it's what I've got....and it's what I like....
*
This is an AWESOME
CHERRY and APPLE LOAF
that a local bakery called THE APPLE TREE
makes.
We really love it so it's always a treat for us..
I try to keep one in my freezer at all times !!.
Would you just look at that silly little black rooster....eyeballing that cake !
*
TODAY...we are having COFFEE..
.....coffee, ICE CREAM and cake !!
*
Altho I keep saying ICE CREAM... my favorite frozen treat is SHERBET...and I love anything CHERRY...
or LEMON
****
Imagine my delight when I foundCHERRY and LEMON SWIRL SHERBET
at our market last week.
OH HONEY !!
*
Add IT to a piece of CHERRY APPLE LOAF
and I am pretty sure it's what
THE ANGELS EAT.
*************
THANKS, LADIES, for your continued weekly memes full of FUN...
and thanks to everyone for coming by MY place.

BJ your posts always make me smile. You say you don't have many dishes...well you do a good job of your 'mixing and matching' as your tables always look new and fresh. I love your little rooster and your little polka dot pitcher too!

Have a wonderful weekend...:)

Sounds wonderful. I love your polka dots too :-)
Blessings,
Marcia
Your posts always make me hungry.. and they make me want to buy new dishes, too, lol... :) Gorgeous as always...
Good morning BJ, I love your black and white. Pink faux flowers are the best kind. They last all year and always look pretty. Most of all I love coffee ice cream. There was a time I wouldn't touch it. Thank good goodness I have mended my ways. Smile.
We are leaving for our week in the mountains with our kids and grands. Good times! My daughter came a day early and last night we made nearly 30 jars of jam. We laughed at all the jam and swore we would never do that again. HA! But we will, when the fruit is free and so plentiful. Lets see, peach, cherry, black raspberry, fig, plum, and blackberry. I will be posting it. Smile.
Have a wonderful week.
Love, Jeanne
Mmmm, sweet and cold sounds wonderful today. It's hot!
Cherry and lemon sherbert? Yummy! I love your dishes!
Happy PS,
Jacalyn

Hello dear BJ,
Oh my this cake looks delish! I would love to come for coffee, and a piece of that yummy cake. Your table looks so pretty too!
Hugs,
Debbie
I'm hungry now! Happy Pink Saturday!
I love ice cream as well, but cannot eat too often. Not good for a little problem I have. My mother used to make homemade. None better. My favorite is Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla. I would not know how to eat it out of all those fancy dishes you hare.
BJ I love your blog. I think your dinnerware is wonderful! Would love to sit down and share a bowl of that sherbet with you. Have a blessed week. Debbie
Love the polka dots!!! They make my heart happy! And so does your earring saying at the top of your blog! Have a lovely Saturday!

Debbie
This post has it going on!
What's to be bad about ice cream? (absolutely nothing) and love the charming table settings...and fun chicken.
Happy Pink Saturday!
A great post. I love the black, white and pink colors together. Your cherry and lemon sherbert looks good. And the cake looks yummy!
Happy Pink saturday!
I think I just gained back the 4 lbs. I recently lost...just from looking at your post! We love homemade ice cream, especially PEACH from our GA peaches. I use my husband's grandmother's old recipe and there is none better! Also love, love black, white, & pink...and polka-dots??? Oh, my! I am amazed at how many followers your blog has! I can't imagine ever getting that many. If I ever make it to 100 I'll dance a jig! You do a great job with yours!
BJ, that sherbet and that cake sound so delicious. My mouth is watering. Lovin' your black and white polka dots! I just found some plastic (or whatever you call those non-breakable dishes) black and white plates on sale. I can't wait to use them in a tablescape. thank you for all of the inspiration, and thank you so much for linking to Favorite Things Sat. laurie
What a beautiful table you set! Love the black and white and that cake sounds delish. Thanks so much for joining me for the Ice Cream Social! Its so much fun to see what everyone comes up with.
It's all so delightful...the table setting, the happy music, the ice cream, and the cake, too.
Loved glancing over your sidebar. I see someone I miss a lot, too. And your anniversary photo is just terrific. What attitude and spark!
I haven't seen that flavor of sherbet yet - it sounds wonderful! Beautiful black, white and pink post.
I want to come to your ice cream social, BJ, and eat out of your gorgeous polka dotted dishes and eat that wonderfully colored sherbet and scrumptious cake...Christine
Lemon - Cherry swirl sherbert - I agree - YUMM!!
Love all the black & white dishes -quite the collection!
BJ, Thanks for inviting me to your Black and White Ice Cream Affair! As usual, being with you is fun! You are such a sweet lady with such a sense of humor and adventure. What I really want to know, how do you eat all these goodies (you seem to cook a lot, and very well) and stay so slim?!! Nicely done. So glad you came to the Ice Cream Social.
Hugs, Beth
That was the classiest ice cream social I've ever been to! I love black, white and pink together!
Happy Pink Saturday!

What a fun table and I think the black and white with the pink is gorgeous. What a fabulous flavor of sherbet. I haven't seen that one. I better start looking.
BJ, needless for me to say I love seeing your black and white. Great table and perfect with the touches of pink. The ice cream and pie is a real bonus! ~ Sarah
Your setting is so nice where do you store it all Black and white I like. Laura Q

love the sherbets.. and the cake looks yummy!
Cherry, lemon swirl? Oh that sounds so refreshing BJ! It's so hot here. It was 80 degrees at 5:30 this morning. Gulp! I think I need some ice-cream for breakfast :)
Hugs,
Dena
Could I have been overlooking that yummy cherry-lemon sherbet in the dairy case? I'm going back to try to find it. Your black and white table is stunning with the colorful accents you've added.
BJ- You have truly made me smile this morning. I love your post! First, your humor is so contagious. Second... dishes with black and white polka dots are some of my favorite things.(I have that pitcher and use it all the time!) And third...where in the world did you find the sherbet? I have never seen anything but the classic flavors around here. That cake looks so yummy, too.
Jane (artfully graced)
ps Thanks for visiting.
The sherbet looks delicious! Perfect for a hot day like today!
Cannoli is an Italian pastry, like a wafer rolled around a tube. You fill it, in my case I used ice cream!
BJ, you are tempting with all kinds of deliciousness today. I want to be your neighbor. ;-)
I cried when they announced the oil had stopped. Please let it be for good.
Happy Pink Saturday, dear friend.
The sherbet sounds wonderful! What a beautiful table you set! Love the black and white. Nice to meet you through Suzy's ice cream social.
I love the black and white polka dots!!! The sherbert looks delicious! Beautiful color!!!
Cherry & lemon sherbet sounds so refreshing for a hot summer day - beautiful post and I love the dishes.
