I have a thing for plates and mugs. Always look for them in thrift stores so I have a wonderful collection of all different mugs and plates from which I can choose according to my mood (or more often to what happens to be clean ...)Beautiful plate, @Antje77 .
What are fruit bowls? If they're the big things to keep whole fruits in until you eat them, why not use them for vegetables, knitting wool or tennis balls for friendly neighbourhood dogs? And If they're the small things you use to eat chopped fruit from why not eat other things from them, like soup, yoghurt or shrimp coctails?Funnily enough there was something other than carbs that I had to wean off after starting LCHF. Fruit bowls. I must have half a dozen and I still have to stop myself buying new ones.
I mean the big ones that Mum's like to see full but nice enough to have as an ornament when empty. Veggies in a fruit bowl in my living room? It's certainly a novel idea.What are fruit bowls?

It is estimated that of the British people with a British heritage two thirds are related to a royal. This is due to the factors such as if one was rich one's children had a better chance of surviving infancy therefore able to pass on DNA and things like the plagues had a devastating effect on the population who were unable to flee to the country seat so to speak. Interesting stuff.
Some one tell that to Danny Dyer
Everybody who was alive in Europe a thousand years ago and who had children, is an ancestor of everyone alive today who has some European ancestry.
Though some of my Ancestors where not in Europe a thousand years ago mind you as if you go back over 3,400 years ago just about every one on Earth has a common Ancestor.
Mind you I don't mind how many people share my heritage I'm interested in the history and tracing my family tree has taught me a lot of historical fact and some fiction also.
I quite like the idea that Barack Obama is related to George bush both senior and junior . and that Wild Bill Hickok is also in the mix

It is quite possible to be related to both. So don't discount it in fact it is highly likely that nearly every one here is in some way.I'd like to think that Henry v was an ancestor but as three of my grandparents were Irish and the fourth was Ulster Scots then I'm more likely to be a descendant of Brian Boru! We can but dream.
There is a small independent gift shop in our town which sells handblown glassware. I have four pieces now. It ain't cheap but I love the fact that no two pieces are the same. The colours are beautiful. Have started to hint at the XL sons whenever a birthday is coming up. I just love this shop except for the area where they keep the scented candles, anyone else find them overwhelming?Wow -- I've just been looking for a bowl like hers online and apparently it was a beaded candlewick bowl of "crimped" design. I love learning stuff when I go hunting. It looked sort of like this one:
I had forgotten the balls of the column but these look familiar.
If you are a descendant of the high king you would also probably be descended from Gormflaith Ingen Macfinn and though reputedly a great beauty she seemed to have a very flawed character.It is quite possible to be related to both.

I'll take that as a compliment... I thinkIf you are a descendant of the high king you would also probably be descended from Gormflaith Ingen Macfinn and though reputedly a great beauty she seemed to have a very flawed character.
