set the table...


On Monday I prepared our table for dinner - we were supposed to have friends over... I say supposed to because it never happened.  While preparing guacamole, I was attempting to pit an avocado over the trashcan and missed.  All of my force came down on my left index finger. :( I nearly sliced it off.  

A bunch of tears, blood, six stitches, and four hours later I was nestled up on the couch milking my injury for all it was worth (a lot at the time).  I'm a baby when it comes to getting injured...mainly because it never happens...this was my first time getting stitches

Anywho.....back to the post.. I already had the table set and I have since left it set...I actually like the way it looks!  It is entirely impracticable but since the sight of a knife makes my stomach turn right now...I won't be doing any cooking anytime soon and therefore we won't be using our table.  
So it's gonna stay all set up for now... I think it dresses up our kitchen just a bit!
