A Valentine's Day Breakfast Tablescape: Welcome to the 127th Tablescape Thursday!

Happy Tablescape Thursday! Hope your week is going great!

A few months ago, I found some flavored chocolate "coffee spoons" at Marshalls. The flavors are: Hazelnut, Mocha, Mint, Irish Cream, French Vanilla and Amaretto. On a trip to Trader Joes I decided to try their gingerbread.




Do these not sound like the perfect winter "comfort" foods? They also sound like the perfect ingredients for a Valentine's Day breakfast. :)




As you can see, someone decided to skip breakfast and sleep in this morning...













China is vintage International, pattern is Glenwood. I found most of it while antiquing and filled in with what I needed from eBay.




The last time I made these little heart shaped cakes for Valentine's Day, I just sprinkled them with powdered sugar and filled them with raspberry preserves.








This time I filled the center with icing I made and tinted pink.




A beautiful orchid from my son for my recent birthday...










Hope you enjoyed this Valentine's Day breakfast.




Looking forward to seeing your beautiful tablescapes!
