Fiestaware

All is well at our house - Sandy came and went and we are damage-free! The power went out a couple of times but for no more than 30 mins, which is far better than the 5 days this time last year! We are off to a trunk-or-treat at our church now, and I'll save Halloween pics for tomorrow, so today's post is something completely Halloween and Hurricane free! My hubby isn't that into gift giving for holidays like Valentines, Mother's Day, Father's Day etc. Christmas and birthdays yes, but card-company-money-making-holidays, no. BUT he does thoroughly enjoy surprising me with random presents and last week he did just that. He knows I love Fiestaware - I have a nice little collection going, so he ordered me a whole set of one of their new colors, Lemongrass, which I have realllllly been wanting. Here are some of my dinner plates...
It may be my favorite color of Fiestaware! You can see the Lemongrass plates sitting on top. It also came with bowls, smaller plates, saucers and cups. He knows me so well!

I LOVE FIESTAWARE TOO. I HAVE A PLACE SETTING IN MOST OF THE COLORS. I LIKE THE COMBINATION OF COLORS YOU POSTED. IT WOULD MAKE A PRETTY QUILT AS WELL.

Love your new Fiesta! I have 2 of most colors since I started collecting. Cutting back to one of each since I am getting so many! I love the new Flamingo color, looks like it came from the '50's.

I don't have Fiesta Ware dishes but do like the wonderful colors they come up with. I have been to the factory store a couple times and purchased a couple platter type plates in the seconds. I guess I ended up donating them to a thrift store. What a wonderful surprise for you.
