"The real things haven't changed. It is still best to be honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasures; and have courage when things go wrong." ~ Laura Ingalls Wilder

Morning Beauty
I just love my Phaltzgraff Yorktowne dishes! I thought they looked so pretty sitting in the sunlight as I was unloading the dishwasher this morning. When I picked out these dishes as a young bride, I didn't realize how much something so simple would mean to me over the years. I have to thank my mom for guiding me in choosing a practical, timeless pattern. I just hope one day, years down the road, that my children and my children's children can sit down to a meal in my kitchen and just the sight of these dishes will say "home" to them :-)
Mrs. H, we are thinking alike today!! I was looking at my dishes this morning & thinking how much I don't like them anymore & how much I would just love to have those simple corelle white dishes my mom always had. Everytime I see them I remember my childhood home. Funny.
I saw your recipe for lemon chicken.... yummy.... I am writing it down. I sooooo hate to cook. Your family is sooo lucky. Have a blessed day,
I have those same dishes!!! My grandmother gave them to me a couple years ago. She got new, well she's an antique's dealer so they are new to her, dishes and asked if I needed any and I said yes, please. I love these dishes so much. I really like your crocks behind the dishes.
