I am also your newest follower, and look forward to current posts coming through my feed. I've jumped around a bit, and can see we share some common ground in our love of home & gardens, as well as some collections. Your faith-filled posts are inspiring, and I'm happy to be acquainted with you!<br />Rita C at PanoplyRita C at Panoplyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17351306074493103021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5398889043491407801.post-90030503103412999962014-08-04T20:56:11.729-04:002014-08-04T20:56:11.729-04:00I love pitchers as well.

I especially love your old churn...getting ready to churn butter at the county fair and some knucklehead will, again, get angry that I won't sell my heritage. sigh. Why are folks so ornery?

Hence the reason why I thing we appreciate they chips and cracks and old patina that we see. Not everyone shares our appreciation for things that have been used. By the way, thank you for your comments on my blog. I just posted after not posting for awhile. I didn't realize there were comments for me to moderate! I must have changed something. Thanks for your encouragement.

Beautifully written and I so needed to read this today. You words really spoke to my heart and lifted my spirits.<br />I too collect shades of white pitchers and I look for them everywhere. Your displays are beautiful, just like your heart. Thank you for the great lesson today. You truly have been blessed with great understanding.<br />Love and Blessings<br />Celestina Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10021633519525822335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5398889043491407801.post-75549072581863566812014-07-30T16:16:53.658-04:002014-07-30T16:16:53.658-04:00I love how we often think a like...

I love analogies like this.<br /><br />Recently,I was gifted a white pitcher that reminds me of the one smack dab in the middle, top shelf, of the first picture. It's not exact... but very, very similar. (maybe I should send it to you, to add to your collection?) ;)<br />This one has a few, random black specks to it and it pings when I tap it like it's accate (sp,?) but painted over in white, because on the bottom is etched a name... merle. ?? <br /><br />Anyway. I like your thoughts here... and I often ponder what kind of vessel I am and how I can be most useful. Holding what? Even with the flaws...Bevy @ Treasured Up and Ponderedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15821971923515558110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5398889043491407801.post-15672017723356637432014-07-30T15:36:49.385-04:002014-07-30T15:36:49.385-04:00This was beautiful Patty. don't know how you c...This was beautiful Patty. don't know how you come up with such wonderful inspiration, week after week.

Don't you wish the pitchers could talk? I also enjoyed your message and Bible verse. God bless your evening.<br /><br />I have an old china pie plate that belonged to my grandma. After her passing when I rec'd it, I found her name written on a piece of paper taped to the bottom of the plate where she had obviously shared a pie with a neighbor, who would know to return the plate to her. I imagine all these pitchers have a similar history!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5398889043491407801.post-13831713330050972982014-07-29T19:27:29.703-04:002014-07-29T19:27:29.703-04:00Wonderful post, Patty!
