I wish my family had been able to rescue some of their treasures when we left Cuba. Oh, well, I guess we were lucky to get out alive - and together. Many families were separated during the exodus in the 60s. It's so nice that you have these beautiful things and that you are using them and making your own stories with them.

I hope all your family was ok after the bombings too. On a happier note, my favorite cookies absolutely are chocolate chip! Dark chocolate. No nuts, although I like nuts on other things! Like pumpkin bread and almond biscotti!

As a single mother I was often harried trying to get us out the door in the morning, and occasionally in desperation, I would let my son have a cookie. It came back to bite me when he wanted cookies for breakfast at my mother's house. I got a stern lecture about my (lack of) parenting skills!<br /><br />This coffee set is a real treasure, and it is just exquisite. The napkins are perfect with it, too.Scribblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06681743103386838795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1594090260353327800.post-70605515947257290802012-03-28T19:31:14.930-05:002012-03-28T19:31:14.930-05:00The coffee set os gorgeous!
