    Cat spoon

    Remember the cat spoon I mentioned yesterday? Well, I am happy to announce it went to a sweet little girl in Vancouver for her 12th birthday which is next week, on Valentine's day. 
    The words are from a game called "Love you more" that the little girl Isobel and her mom play based on the book "Guess how much I love you". The Mother hare and baby hare are trying to find ways to show they love the other one more.
    I know it's just a spoon, but what a spoon! It has a whole story on it, and so many details; a cat and kittens playing, two beautiful birds (I can hear them sing), even a little mouse. 
    Ok, maybe I'm a spoon freak. I can live with that.

    Hotel Lenox

    So happy to own one butter knife from the hotel Lenox in Buffalo, NY!

    Imagine how many people held it in the last 100+ years...

    Originally built 1896 as an apartment building, the Lenox was converted into a hotel in 1900,

    probably to take advantage of the Pan-American Exposition crowds.

    The Lenox survives today as one of the longest continuously run hotels in Buffalo.

    By the way, a lot of new Special items are up on the website, like this "cat teaspoon" for example,
    as well as lots of new cake servers and serving sets!
