~Decorating On The Prairie~
~SUPER DUPER~
Once in a blue moon, I come across a super buy.
While visiting a Atchinson, Kansas Thrift Shop,
my shopping cart went directly to the shelves of goods.
On the shelf were some beautiful white china
and out of my mouth came, "Whoaaah, Buggay!"
Stopped my shopping cart and immediately
started placing the dishes in it.
"I hit the momma lobe!"
Nothing was marked.
When I asked what the dishes were priced,
the salesclerk said,
"Just a minute. I have to count them."
"That will be $5."
I said, "Sold!"
and away I went.
After the Kitchen is finished and my Dining room
returns to being a Dining room,
I'll be delighted to open my home for a Tea Party in The Flint Hills.
Sometimes 'Decorating On The Prairie'
puts a smile on my face,

While looking for info about tea, I came across this tid bit of information: Called “Nana”,
mint tea is the most popular infusion in the Holy land.

There’s a tea called “Nana Maria” which includes
mint, marjoram, lemon grass, savory, sage and rose petals.

It’s good for restoring
energy, and acts as a decongestant.
It also contains antioxidants, which
may help to prevent cancer.
The herbs for the tea all grow well in Galilee.

Great post - what a find with those dishes...can you show a picture of one of the plates to see the design - they look so pretty I'd love to see a setting set up....pretty please. Boy you couldn't beat that price either.
I know the Amish drink a lot of Mint Tea - for those reasons you gave.
I think I may have to start drinking it!!
Blessings,

Karen, I'm so glad you stopped by and commented. Blessings 2 u.
I will try to remember to take a picture of the plates when I unpack them in the future. Right now my Dining room is like a warehouse and my dishes are quickly boxed up after I get them.
I could probably get to the cake plates and snap a photo. It's a 'bigga' mess around here as hubby is working on Kitchen and having surgery in October. He'll be out of commission during October and part of November.
Be on the look out....I will try really hard to get single pics of the glass cake plates.
Thank you for asking,
