Here are some of my favorite things in my house. I am listing them in detail so you don't have to hunt..:)

1.Christmas china with tea service, I love this set. My kids bought me 5 sets for a Christmas present. We bought the tea service after it had been discontinued. My dd hunted the web til' she found a dealer that sold discontinued china! Yea for her. We also have a Christmas tea party every Christmas. We drink cocoa, becuz' it's cold and my dd dubbed it "Cocoa Tea"

2.My white black and yellow china, that was my MIL.. My dh bought her 3 sets while he was in hong kong, in the navy. He had to buy her 3 sets becuz' their are 12 children in his family..then spouses and so on. :) I feel so honored that she gave it to me before she died.

3.My cook books. some new and some very old. The green book with the rubber bands around it, was my mothers. It is called "The Meta Givens Modern Encyclopedia of Cooking" Becuz' it is so old and looks like something June Cleaver would use...we dubbed it "The Leave it to Beaver Cookbook" lol It is a huge book and it explains how to cook anything. It even tells you how to gut a bear. No kidding! Un real huh? I love it. My dd gets it when I die, and then her dd.

4.Of course my new 13x19 printer...

5.My red door perfume.. Love it!

6. My grape sign over my kitchen doorway. It say's "Live Well, Love Much, Laugh Often"

7.Their are 3 pics of the top of my kitchen cupboards. I have baskets of grapes and vases and canisters and a lemon plate that is Italian. My dd gave it to me for Christmas a few years back. I love the look of old Italy..and that Tuscan look. I would love to go to Italy someday!

8.A quilt my MIL made. She cross stitched everything on this quilt. All I did was help her quilt it and I did the binding around the edges. She gave everyone of her 12 kids a special quilt on their 50th wedding anniversary. We got this one. Love it!

9.My diamond rings. I have 2 wedding sets, one 3.5 carat solitaire, and a 2.0 carat solitaire, and a ring with 3 stones, past, present and future. I trade off from time to time. Their is one more wedding set I want to get. Maybe for Christmas! :)

10.My shelves and all the special nic nacs on them. I have mini tea sets, porcelain statues, all my scrapbooks..so far! And pic's of my kids on top.

11.Then my 33 year old stereo. It still sounds really good. And of course we have old lps to play on it too. Playing Christmas records on it at Christmas time makes it so fun. You can hear the hiss and the pops records make and it feels like we have stepped back in time! I love nostalgia!!

Well their ya go!! Some of my favorite things!
