Springfield & Wescott House

We went to an antique show in Springfield yesterday that was kinda sad.. not very many vendors, and way too much junk. But we found some great HUGE antique malls that had lots of interesting stuff to look at. We went with our new friends Ronald and Gary, and we stopped on the way back in German Village to eat at Schmidt's, another new place to us that R & G introduced us to. We also went to a newly-restored FLW house--the Wescott House--in Springfield and that was really a treat. We got some cups and saucers and a plate to go with Steven's Guggenheim Teapot recently acquired at Taliesin West. We also got a nice arts & crafts plant stand for the dining room window.

Maybe we will go to a campaign rally in Marietta tonight for Hillary that BILL will be speaking at.. not sure yet. We wouldn't get home till midnight, and i have to work tomorrow even though it is a holiday at work.

Over the Hill

Our friends Amy & Matt visited recently from Kansas City. Amy decided she wanted to come visit us--US!--to celebrate her Fortieth birthday. We were excited and honored. She is the ONLY person from my childhood that i am still friends with, and i wish we didn't live so far apart. Rare times when we are able to get together, we become immature brats again?

White Coral Dinnerware

Here is some modern, non-kitsch and non-antique dinnerware i could get into. From a Dutch manufacturer, this particular line is designed by a Pratt Institute grad, and is tres tres tres TRES bon. Wonder how many fabulous thousands of Euros it would set me back? Isn't it beautiful?
