When I came home for Christmas, I got a cookbook called "How to Cook Everything Vegetarian" from my sister, plus a slow cooker. My mom got me a rice cooker. After reading Ashley's blog about making bread and having some recipes in the cookbook, I needed a bread pan. I found a purple one at Goodwill for just $3. I also got a small white sherbet dish that I plan to use for something nice-smelling or a candle, but I forgot to get a photo of it. It has a little lacey edge.
I also organized the stuff I got from my Memaw at Thanksgiving. I got some Depression glass. After looking in some books from the library, I think the pieces might be by Fenton. They were made during the 30's. I got the glasses on the left and the sherbets in the middle. I found the smaller glass on ebay.
I was fortunate enough to get some topaz stuff as well. I think it will look nice on an antique vanity dresser one day. There's a candy dish, a bowl, and another bowl that could hold candles (it has 5 small holes on the inside ring). The first two I haven't yet identified. But the second bowl is made by Fenton, it's stamped on the bottom.
And finally... I went to a local antique shop just to look around their stuff. I got the Mayfair Open Rose pitcher and cookie jar. I identified the pitcher as an original but the cookie jar is a reproduction. The differences include the color, the stems, and the clusters within the flowers' centers.
