Cathay Blue Teapot and Dish by Barker Bros

Estate Sale ~ Picked up a set of Cathay Blue Danube Dishes by Barker Bros.

When I saw these sets of dishes where they have a 'estate sale', told myself, "I want them", picked up the tag and show the ladies that I would like to buy the set...... As far as these sets go, they're rare and very hard to find and replace.  I had seen some of them at EBay and they're quite expensive....some of the sets EBay are selling were either used....These are collectible dishes made by Barker Bros of Staffordshire, England.

GRANNY SQUARES SPREAD

Do you remember those granny squares I had started to crochet....I finally finished it late last night, I didn't go to bed until this was done....a gift to my beautiful daughter........left over yarns used them as borders....

ORGANIC ONIONS

I pulled these onions from the ground as they have been pulled out by either rabbits or squirrels, I am totally disappointed as they're not quite time to pull them out...anyhow, they're probably good to use and mix them with veggies....:-)

Organic Red Potatoes grew from a plastic basket container

I just pulled out my potato plants growing from a plastic basket container.  I had about 5 lbs. of red potatoes....the difference between organic and store bought is the color of the skin....homegrown potatoes are more lighter red than store bought potatoes....so you too can grow potatoes in a container...
