I know when I look at something if it's going to be one of those things I will regret forever if I don't buy it. Does that qualify as a sentimental purchase? If so, I do it alot!

And such a sweet remembrance of your proposal :-) Looks like we are about the same age, and MY sweet hubby proposed on Feb 10, 1973!! Only I said YES, and we were marred that summer ;-D Great find. I hope you will enjoy using the beautiful flatware.<br /><br />Jocelyn @<br />http://justalittlesouthernhospitality.blogspot.com/Jocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02714577523744715551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1594090260353327800.post-89059444959065121072011-08-14T07:56:18.206-05:002011-08-14T07:56:18.206-05:00You sweet YOUNG thing!

I love that table and all the sentimental touches! I'm a sucker for that. It makes life so much richer! Your comment (crossed out) about your husband's orchids made me laugh out loud! My husband would have done the same. But I, like you, would have love it just the same. This flatware is spectacular! I love it!Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14051950012579346329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1594090260353327800.post-67117001821205781322011-08-12T16:15:34.778-05:002011-08-12T16:15:34.778-05:00Oh, what a sweet story, Marlis! 1953 was a good y...Oh, what a sweet story, Marlis! 1953 was a good year (ahem - I knew we had a lot in common!)

I do make sentimental purchases, but usually very inexpensive ones. I have recently picked up a few "souvenir" type items with the touristy label of Nova Scotia, as that is where my honey and I honeymooned 31 years ago! I don't have anything from that trip except a huge piece of quartz which we picked up on a hike near a lighthouse. At that time any purchase was a major one for us! Enjoy your beautiful pieces!
