I finally found more sherbet bowls! In all actuality Anna found them, but we were cruising through an antique store in Pipestone yesterday afternoon, and Anna found a table where there were five of these little beauties at a very reasonable price, so now we have a grand total of seven! That means we can serve something to company in them, so come on by! We'd love to see you here in little ol' Dundee, Minnesota, where the grain elevator is churning furiously to accommodate the new crop.
It's harvest time, and it is also pheasant season, so the town is buzzing as much as it ever does. Unfortunately, that means the same thing that happens in other towns, church attendance goes down. People are busy, but still, there was an adequate crowd last Sunday, and many people complemented me on my sermon, probably because I spoke about how God is constant, even when the economy is bad, something these agricultural people can really relate to.
Anyway, had to brag about having enough bowls now. Of course, along the way to finding these bowls, we have discovered other Anchor Hocking Wexford treasures, such as a small pitcher, a sugar bowl, salt and pepper shakers, water goblets, and a wine decanter. I think that's enough for now. It's time to focus on filling in Anna's salt and pepper shaker collection; although she wasn't too interested in the John Deere tractor pulling a corn trailer salt and pepper set I saw yesterday, also at the antique store. Hmmm... I guess she has good taste, but what does that say about mine? Don't answer too quickly! Blogged by Don
