These photos are for Nikki....this is part of an antique dinner set given to me by my mum. The original set had enough plate settings for 12 people and there were 6 tureens with china ladles and 8 platters in different sizes. Mum halved the set and my sister and I were each given a dinner set for 6 people. Some of the plates have somehow found their way to Trudy's house...


The green plates were also some of mum's. I love the cabbage leaf plates. She had a pile of them and I now have a few. I try to use them every day.

Well I hadn't been able to access my blog....I've been having trouble with my hotmail and my new gmail and I'm not sure if it is me or the computer or the internet baddies..stuff I don't understand. Luckily I have some brainiac family members who know what computers are about...I rang my son-in-law, Tom, the other day for internet help and he was very patient and helpful. I realized though that maybe I need to persevere sometimes and so I did and got back on here. This blog is really nice to have for me to post photos for friends who are not okay with facebook. Living between the 2 countries means that I am often thinking about friends and family on the other side from whichever country I happen to be in at the time. So now of course I think of my Canadians....especially Nikki and Don's children, Melanie and David.
