Woody got up early and walked six miles. I have been puttering around in the kitchen for a good part of the day. This morning I made a marinated salad and then cleaned up the kitchen. Then this afternoon I messed up the kitchen again to fix our supper and had to clean it up again. One of my friends was cleaning out a closet and found a box of dishes that she was no longer using. She remembered that we have the same pattern so she gave them to me. I have been finding a home for them among my collection. Several of the pieces we didn't have...very nice to add two different size platters and a divided vegetable bowl. A bit of rearranging and they are put away. I still have several other pieces that I have to find places to store them. These dishes are the ones that we chose/registered for when we got married. They are Poppytrail La Mancha Gold by Metlox. My maid-of-honor questioned my choice as they are a bold color and she wondered if we would get tired of them. But I still love them as much today as when we chose them 45 years ago! They are not fine china but a heavy pottery and they have held up very well over the years. Oh, and, I got back to cleaning out cabinets again...over the weekend I worked on one of the lower cabinets (the hardest for me to get to these days!). Maybe now that I am feeling better I will get the rest of them cleaned out. Woody continues to feel fine with no known side effects from the first infusion.
