First of all-
Thank you so much for always playing along.
I know many blogs have been abandoned over the years-
Facebook & Instagrams are the new favorites
BUT
there are a lot of us "old" bloggers
that remain connected and I am thankful for that.
Ready for the results?

#5- A LITTLE BIT OF GOLD
Mevely, Billie Jo, Betty D &
Racheld-comment/how she rationalized her choice:
I DO believe #5 would be my choice, though I've never been a sunflower or daisy person---it's just that all the red checks and blue napkins and little jam jars with their topknots fresh from the canning kitchen all look as if they could have come out of one of those Massachusetts/Maine baskets ready for a picnic. You know, the wide, lavish ones with the colorful cloths top and bottom of a warm berry pie with stars in the crust, whether it's the Fourth or not---something about a New England Summer picnic that's so fresh and crisp and bright, and not like the dumpy old everyday Colemans and Igloos of my Southern raising, slid into pickup beds with tools and quilts and an ole dog to head for the lake, and Cuzn BobbyRay already there with a big bag of Kingsford and Marvella's famous Duke's potato salad.
And the table! The colors---and cupcakes! Nibbles! Jam! That one looks like you turned me loose at it already, throwing all sorts of homemade goodies around with a careless hand. Yep. #5

Always fun to see who we get to sit with. Happy 4th.
Oh no! We have to wear bikinis to sit at Table #2? Yikes!
So much fun! I am happy to sit at any of these table and help celebrate the 4th. Be safe and have fun Diana. xo
only 3 of us by the pool, that means I can wear my bathing suit. the less people the better to see that mess
I somehow missed this. But I'm proud to say that, like you, I am one of those old bloggers who's still around!

Have a pleasant Sunday, Diana.

Let's Get prayers lifting now ... done
Always fun! Happy 4th.
I want to look at the view at 3. xo Laura
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one afraid of falling in the water...lol
Have a happy 4th
Happy 4th Diana!! I hope you have a lovely long weekend! xo
Lordy, Nana-D! You just splashed my long-winded thoughts right out there, and those poor three stuck with me at #5 are gonna be regretting that they didn't choose SIX or FOUR. I promise to reel in the words better this time. It's just been a LONG THREE Housebound years, and I've written WAY more than I've talked. Sending wishes for a LOVELY DAY for Everybody!! rachel
Hello Diana, I'm sorry I missed this one, I like your table placings. If I had been in time I would have chosen #5- A LITTLE BIT OF GOLD :-)
Boo hoo, I got left out of table #3! I picked it because it looked like a picnic and there's nothing better than a 4th of July picnic! I was looking forward to it, too! Oh, well, maybe next time!
I am in great company. HAPPY FOURTH!
So interesting what everyone said! I hope you have a great holiday weekend!
I'm in good company!! Just wish we could really get together like this and celebrate "old bloggers" with lots of fun and laughter!! Love this, Diana!! Happy 4th!!
Sounds wonderful. I hope all these tables are in close proximity to one another so we can hobnob around and meet everyone else! Wouldn't that be grand??? Happy Independence Day, Diana, no matter who you end up dining with. So happy we are still free to do so!!
Shucks! I missed the first post with the choices! Good to see the results! I think there is room to add me to #3!
Lol, I promise not to have a paint stained smock on but I can’t guarantee I won’t have paint splotches on my arms, hands or legs. Happy 4th of July! Have a blessed week.
Hugs, Cecilia
How did I miss this? I LOVE these posts.
I want to be at #1. I'll just pull up a chair!!!
xoxoxo
Diana, it was so fun to pick a table and see where everyone is sitting. Have a nice 4th of July!
Thanks for hosting the virtual 4th of July party. Have a safe and (hopefully) relaxing holiday. xoxo
I don't know anyone at my table!
I see Ron has chosen my table (in the comments) so I’m glad for that! 🇺🇸
Good fun, thank you.
Happy 4th of July wishes.
All the best Jan
Hahahaha! Oh, girl! I WISH I could still feel good in a bikini! Lol! A tankini with a beach cover up is much more to my liking nowadays. But, thanks for the compliment! You're so much fun and I treasure our friendship! Love you, Diana! xo
Laurie
Not sure how I missed this. Always enjoy the table settings. As a blogger of long-standing so very grateful for this wonderful blog community.
