Home Decor:Accessories:Lenox, Winter Greetings Everyday, Stoneware
This Winter Greetings Everyday luncheon or salad plate by Lenox measures 8 1/2" wide and shows a pair of cardinals sitting on twigs of holly and another sprig, which may be grapes...not good on my berries. The cardinals are perfect for the season with the bright red male and their red beaks. They just go with Christmas. The tartan plaid trims the rim. During the holiday season, it is fun to have bright and cheery dinnerware and this Lenox pattern fills the bill. The pattern, which was introduced ...

$28 USDLefton Christmas Tree Plate, 1950-57, #1096-N
Home Decor:Accessories:Lefton:Christmas Tree
I didn't realize Lefton made a Christmas tree plate like this, but just ran across it. According to the mark, it was made between 1950-57 and is signed Geo. Z. Lefton, 1096-N. The Christmas tree is surrounded by white holly and berries. It measures 8 5/8" wide and is free of damage. Why can I picture a mound of snowball/Russian tea cakes or divinity on this plate? Fudge would be nice, too.

$45 USDLenox Bone China Figurine, Footprints in the Sand, 1994
Home Decor:Accessories:Lenox Life Of Christ Collection:Footprints In The Sand Figurine
This lovely figurine was issued in 1994 by Lenox as part of the Life of Christ Collection and influenced by the poem attributed to Mary Stevenson who wrote the poem "Footprints..." in 1936. For years, the poem was signed "anonymous" or "unknown" but Ms. Stevenson ran across the original paper with the poem and it was authenticated as being over 50 years old at that time. For space consideration, I have not included the poem, but it can be found by searching the Internet for the title, ...

$10 USDMetropolitan Cook Book, 1922
Home Decor:Accessories:Cookbooks:Metropolitan Insurance Cook Book
I was just reading through this Metropolitan cook book and was surprised to see so many cost-saving type recipes and/or suggestions. It would appear to be a cook book for those going through the Great Depression, but then things weren't too good in 1922, either. There are 64 pages in this softcover cook book. There are no tears or writing and the pages are clean. I was surprised at some of the suggestions, but many of them were standard procedure for our grandmothers. Maybe it wouldn't be a bad ...

Having cooked for many, many years, I still enjoy looking through cookbooks to find different recipes to feed my family or friends. Don't you get tired of the same old/same old?

$10 USDFrom Our Kitchens To Yours, First Methodist Church, Mt. Pleasant, Iowa
Home Decor:Accessories:Cookbooks
I don't have a date for this cookbook, but it appears to be from the 1950s. For one, the ads appear to be around that period of time and the phone numbers are two or three digits. I would say the late 40s to early 50s. Keep in mind that this church still runs a tent kitchen at the Old Threshers' Reunion, which is a huge event each year. These church tents are well known for their fabulous meals, generous servings and reasonable prices. They use quality ingredients and put out a quality product. ...

This is a beautiful cookbook and, as many of you know, the main author is no longer with us.

Julia teamed up with Jacques Pepin in a TV series and this recent cookbook, "Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home." The recipes are very detailed with many visual instructions, as well as variations. Although many of the recipes are for special ...
