It’s been ages since I’ve posted anything.  I simply ran out of things to write about.  I do have some odds and sods of glass and crystal around that I haven’t featured, but they are kind of ‘meh’.  Nothing to share.

At the same time I decided that I really have to stop buying stuff.  I am running out of room and I’m not even selling anything to make space.  It’s summer and I’d rather be in my garden!

Nonetheless we are off to Tennessee on a road trip this month and I plan to stop by the Heisey Museum in Newark, Ohio.  Looking forward to that!

I did pick this pretty little piece up at an auction on Friday.  My resolve to stick to a budget, and NOT buy things, went to heck, when I got this (actually I bought two) for $7.00 each.  I have some pieces of the Madrid, but not in the blue.  The blue seems less common, as does this piece.  I’ve seen it online as a butter OR cheese dish -who knows?

The blue is very summery and I have one stashed away on a white shelf, with a million of other pieces, and one decorating my pine box.

Pieces to augment the ‘blue’ collection.
