Even though my Mom, Sister and I weren’t
together for Valentines Day this year, my
Sister wanted to do something to let us know
she was thinking about us. We each received
an email with a picture of her little
The message read “can you guess which is
yours?”
Mom and I hurriedly called each
other to discuss this mystery!
Mom reported that Laur had recently
attended a private showing of antique dishes.
Hmmm, very interesting!
“Mmmm, ruffled chargers! I always
wanted them!”
“They were from her Christmas cookie
exchange” Mom said.
“Drat!”
“I know which is mine” she
laughed!
“Laurie knows I collect Ruby Crown
glassware and that looks like a candy dish for
me!”
And there it was…a beautiful
pedestal dish made of Ruby Crown glass…
“How bout those two goblets? she knows I
love stemware”
“No, she bought those for that other
tablescape, remember?”
“No, Mom I don’t, okay I really like that
tiered cake plate.”
“That isn’t a cake plate!”
“She has stacked her three pink cake stands
Very clever, I thought.
“Well I know she had those little pink
depression glass plates, they can’t be for me.”
“I don’t think she had any pink depression
glass.”
“Are you sure?, because I have been dying
for some! they would go great with my
green ones!”
“I think those must be it!”
“Mom, hold on..”
I quickly dialed Laur’s number and added
her into our call.
“You’re both right!” she exclaimed.
“I can’t wait for us to get together in March
and play with our new dishes!”
Gone to dig out the green depression glass!
