Joining in on the Silver Sunday Blog Party by Gypsy Fish


Jean's Silver Tea Service

"Jean"

I loved my grandmother's tea service as a little girl. My grandmother, whom I called "Jean" (she felt that she was too young to be called 'grandmother'!) gave it to my mother. I borrowed it a couple of times, so my mother was happy to give it to me... knowing that it would be used and enjoyed. I haven't used it as much in the last few years, but I do enjoy having it in my dining room. When I look at it I think of two wonderful women who enjoyed entertaining... my grandmother and my mother.

I just discovered Gypsy Fish tonight! I can't wait to take a little time and explore this wonderful blog. So much to enjoy and learn. Be sure to take a look.
