Abstract: A plate dispensing and supporting apron has a plate dispenser and support that can be stowed in a vertical configuration and released so that it extends horizontally in a deployed position. It can then support a plate with food, condiments, utensils, etc. The plate can be easily retained on the plate dispenser and support so that the wearer can cook, serve food, grill, etc. while having ready access to the materials on the plate dispenser and support. A horizontal pocket can be incorporated in the plate dispenser and support that can hold extra plates. A vertical pocket can be incorporated as well to hold additional items (such as utensils, napkins, etc.).

Abstract: An accent light adapter mount can receive accent lights (such as outdoor solar lights) and securely hold them in place without requiring the use of ground stakes. The accent light adapter mount can be attached to items such as railings, decks, fences, buildings, picnic tables, etc. and allows the normally limited-location, ground-stake accent lights to be used in many more locations. The accent light adapter mount has a containment plate, a mounting plate, a base plate, and a mounting cone. A mounting port in the containment plate receives the support column of a light and allows the column to be slid down over the mounting cone. Together, the two components hold the accent light in place in the adapter mount. Once the mount is attached to an item, the accent light is then held in place against the item without the use of a ground stake.
