Props to anybody who can identify both the china pattern and the silverware pattern. Oh, let me get you a napkin. You have a little milk mustache :)

07/12/2010 ***Thank you for all of the comments on our baking adventures :) You are all very kind! I saved each and every one of you a cookie for the next time you come to my house! Meet Orchid, our new house plant. Creative name, huh? This is probably the most vibrant she will ever look since I'm not very experienced with orchids. But we shall see what happens. Happy Monday to all. :)
