I saw 2 really nice soup tureens there about 2 weeks ago, but didn't buy because I have no place to put them!<br />Your blog is darling!Susan@The Cozy Chickadeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161980560481936433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993564595448887939.post-64602974356989732052009-04-23T17:45:00.000-06:002009-04-23T17:45:00.000-06:00Wow, your blog is wonderful.

Wilton produces it, as well as other places - like Lenox. You never have to polish it - it is just gray and dull. A lot of brides in the 90's and 2000's request platters made of it instead of silver. HOWEVER, I love your silver and think those generations will come around to silver eventually!

The first thing I broke years ago was the ladle to my tureen, and have used a silver one ever since. Boy, it's hard to keep up with you - you have had so many wonderful things to post about recently!!! Have a great weekend.

I love it all!<br />The thrift store I tend to favor also employs those that may have a hard time getting employment elsewhere and I love that they are giving these individuals a "chance" or maybe a "2nd chance" to be productive. I always thank whomever assists me and always find a positive comment to say to them about their help. I figure that they may need affirmation from time to time.Rechelle ~Walnuthaven Cottage~https://www.blogger.com/profile/00532760613588553175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993564595448887939.post-22321281695081415592009-04-23T09:07:00.000-06:002009-04-23T09:07:00.000-06:00NO NO NO Charie,that tureen is suppose to be mine....NO NO NO Charie,that tureen is suppose to be mine.Don't you remember?<br /> ok,everybodys finding them but me.baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,but my day will come.<br /> i wish yall could've seen my hubby the other day.he doesn't have a clue what he's looking for.but he sure is trying.we went to a thrift store.he was bringing over to mr pots with lids.big,pretty ones.but pots......not bowls.<br /> one day ,my day will come.Cindy found 2,Gloria found i you found 1.now it's MY TURN.HA.<br /> EVERYTHING YOU BOUGHT IS WONDERFUL.AND I REALLY AM PROUD FOR YOU...ANNAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993564595448887939.post-35831772602512305532009-04-23T07:02:00.000-06:002009-04-23T07:02:00.000-06:00I love the silver tray AND the tureen.
