This teapot and platter is on display in her dining room.
In honor of my mom and all the moms I know out there...
Here are some pictures that remind me of my mom.
You've probably seen some of them.
I have too much on my plate this week, so I hope you enjoy!
Her floral Bavarian plates and Limoges Butterfly
She went above and beyond with this beautiful cake for my birthday!
My mom really exemplifies unconditional love.
She is generous, she is kind, she is smart, she is wise, she is caring, nurturing, loving and she will always be one of my best friends.
In each of these pictures, she has gifted
or lent me something without a return date.
I remember in high school, my brother's friends would eat dinner with us, even if he wasn't home.
I learned how to set an inviting table from her.
It didn't have to be fancy, but the guests should always feel welcome and special.
My mom let me help her in the kitchen at an early age and always encouraged me to enjoy it.

She gave me this teapot, platter and matching serving bowls when she knew I was collecting the pattern.
Regency White is the pattern she has from my grandmother. She gave me these spoons from her mother.
Her wedding crystal
She helped me collect these wine glasses from Marshall's the first year I was married.
She brought me this sugar bowl from Russia.
The Mason Ironstone is on display in her china cabinet. It was my great grandmother's.
She gifted me with a set for 12 of Italian Countryside.
She helped me collect these snowman plates and mugs years ago. 
Her Spode Wickerdale belonged to my grandmother.
Thanks, Mom! I love you dearly!
