Mrs.

Listened to the China, Silver, and Crystal podcast, found it to align with my experience. My children fit their description of being more casual, relaxed, and definitely not matchy-matchy. My silver and good China are, in fact, put away until Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's--but we like how special it all is when we bring it out. This year everything is newly organized and LABELED, which is key for me to remember, find, and use my stuff. I recently discovered anti-tarnish strips, which have changed our lives! No more marathon polishing sessions. Anyway, I very much enjoyed hearing the ideas for using the good stuff in everyday ways. Love stacks of saucers with a cup on top, with or without a posy. I'll tune in again, starting at Episode One, is my plan!
