Roast Beef Wraps



These wraps are versatile.  I serve them for lunch, after school snacks, and also for dinner.  They’re simple and inexpensive and my children like them.  They’re especially handy on those nights when we’re on the go. I can wrap them up and take them with us for a homemade meal on the run.

Roast Beef Wraps Ingredients:
flour tortillas ranch dressing salsa sliced roast beef shredded mozzarella cheese sliced olives Spread 1 tsp. ranch dressing over a flour tortilla.  Spread 2 Tb. salsa over the ranch.  Sprinkle 3-4 Tb. mozzarella cheese over each tortilla, then sprinkle with sliced olives.  Place 2-3 slices of roast beef on top.  Roll up and place seam side down in a 9×13 inch pan.  Heat at 300 for about 10 minutes or until cheese is melted.

For a meal on the go, simply wrap each tortilla in foil after assembling.  Warm in the oven and take them with you.  I love having things like this planned for crazy nights.  We eat better and save so much money when we don’t “grab something” from a drive thru.

Vintage Tablecloth: Kate Greenaway, Language of Flowers

I saved my favorite Kate Greenaway cloth for last.  This tablecloth is named after her book, The Language of Flowers.  Like the book, it’s covered with illustrations of flowers.


The cloth has a blue background, with two creamy white borders.  It measures 36 by 36 inches and is in perfect condition.


This tablecloth is the only one I own that came to me in its original box.


Prior to finding this treasure, I had only seen the Leacock crest which you can see on the bottom left, on the edge of the box.  I’d never seen the company logo which is printed on the top of the box, but I quite like it.  Established 1760.  How cool is that?  I had no idea it was a company that pre-dated the American Revolution.


The four napkins are still there, making this a complete set.


One of my all-time favorite tablecloths, I’m grateful to have this in my collection.
