Use it and talk about it….

I have a 16-year old son who has heard the ‘grandpa collected the glassware when he went to the movies for a nickel during the Great Depression’ story more times than he cares to hear, however, the story behind the glass lives…and so does the glass…

So true! What good is a collection if you do not use and enjoy it? My Grandma used to save this certain set of dishes for “good”, which meant she never used them. However, about 10 years ago she began to use them, and it was so nice.

Now that she is gone, and my Mom has that set, we all have happy memories of Gran tied to those pieces.

Great article!
