So Today I finally finished sewing an apron I had been putting off for quite some time. It looks....decent, I guess. Anyway I am uploading pictures of my Cornish Game Hen meal and will post about that soon. I've become completely distracted today by my new kitchen goal.
I want a Merry Mushroom Collection.
I want to go all out too. It's a style from Sears in 1978 my Grandmother Buna* had it. Well what she had was this. (above) She also had matching glasses. I have been searching for this style of things on Ebay and Replacements.com for about 2 hours now. What surprised me is that the above image is one I found on Amazon. This is the only full set of canisters I have found. It has one for flour, sugar, coffee and tea. most of the sets I have found online are only the larger 3. What happened to everyone's tea canister? I'm very curious. I also wish my family hadn't thrown away my grandma's set. She had trivets and pot holders that matched. I want this all. I am now obsessed the only thing that might stop me would be my S.O. telling me it's too tacky.
*My grandmother's name really was Buna. Like Buena except she spelled it wrong her entire life and didn't know she had until she was 65. She grew up in the North Georgia Mountains until she moved down to Atlanta when she was 18. She had 17 siblings. She only met 14 of them. Her sister Mary was the youngest and at 83 the only one still living.
