    May 3, 2010 at 1:46 pm

    I would LOVE to win this book! I think family traditions are so important in the lives of my children. The cake plate my great grandma always served icebox sugar cookies on…the chipped platter with a rose design from grandma elsie…the elephant cookie jar from grandma harriet…the candy dish grandpa always gave us butterscotch candy out of and he pulled us with his cane by the neck to come closer to his chair.

    Family, memories & traditions are what it's all about. Such fond times I remember as a child.

    Manuela, I got your generous giveaway and posted about it today! I just love everything!!!!! Wait till you see what I am going to do with the yellow toile. When I saw it I just about fainted. It is so me!
    The rooster coasters, much to my husbands dismay, are going to be framed. He loves the coasters and was hoping to have them for his bar. I am putting them in my eating area.

    Thanks you so much! I really love it all!
