| I still use the electric alarm clock given to me for my first wedding in 1969, and it's brilliant and still goes well. My bedroom wouldn't be the same without this old thing next to the bed!!I still use the bone handled carving set that my grandparents had for their wedding in 1916!! Also the roller towels have been replaced several times by ones I have made!!! They are so useful and handy. |

| I have a lovely set of Noritake china that has filled at least four different china cabinets since my first marriage in 1966. It has never had a morsel of food served on it. I always thought it was just too much trouble to get it out when I had perfectly good dishes to use that were stacked in the kitchen cabinets. |

| I have a "Moss Rose" tea and coffee set my Mom gave me when I married..she had it for some time and then passed it along to me...my little girl and I used to play "tea party" with it. I have all the Revere Ware pots and pans I started out with when I married in 1978...my folks gave them to us as a wedding gift.Several quilts made at quilting bees from flour sacks by my husbands aunts, grandmother and Mom..given to us when we married...still in great condition.We bought the house my husband grew up in...we redid the kitchen but when it came to taking out the sink my husband couldn't do it...too many memories of his mom standing there washing dishes...it was one of the old Jamestown metal cabinets. I wasn't in "love" with it...I had purchased stainless appliances and it didn't really fit. We came to a compromise and stripped the cabinet down to the bare metal and had the sink refinished..turned out really cool and is an interesting piece. Stripping the paint off was mortal hell.The ironing board my Grandmother gave me when we first married..a little rickety, but sentimental..I'll keep using it.Ah..and last but not least..the negligee from my honeymoon...still in mint condition...and I put it on every now and then for old times sake...almost always on our wedding anniversary...I usually put my wedding dress on for a few moments too. |
