A Memory to Share.....

Years ago, I just fell in love with items that had a "fruit theme" - especially when I saw it on china. When my parents came for a visit, I mentioned this to my Mom. We went out shopping a few times during that visit, and we seemed to see fruit-themed things everywhere we went. Christmastime came later that year. I opened a package from my parents, and inside were these fruit plates (made by Havilland china company), that belonged to my Mom. They were passed down through the family and ended up with her. And now she was giving them to me. I yelled out in surprise and delight - and then cried.... I love looking at them every time I walk through my living room.
