Treasure




Fifteen years ago Mike and I went to Georgia and visited Heather.  We spent a long weekend with her. Explored her little town and surrounding areas.  One afternoon we took a drive across the Savannah River and went into a small community in South Carolina.  While there we did a little window shopping.  We found this really cool shop and in it was this dish set with leaves.
I was infatuated.  But I could see no way to bring any of it home with me and my frugal nature would not let me buy it.
Imagine my surprise when that Christmas I got this bowl and two plates from that set.  I haven't used the plates much, but the bowl has always had a permanent residence on my counter.  I still love it to this day.  And I love Heather who was thoughtful enough to get it for me.  She saw that I loved it.
And it always brings back happy memories of our visit with her.
Thanks again and always Heather for my treasure and your friendship which is an even bigger treasure.
