Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice...let's start with the Everything Nice.
Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice...let's start with the Everything Nice.
Patti and I are pinching ourselves because our blog is featured in the Site Seeing section of the March issue of Romantic Homes Magazine.
When we received our copy in the mail, needless to say we did the happy dance.
We are so excited to be in such great blog company.

Sugar and spice and certainly everything nice were once served from this beautiful Edwardian sterling silver cruet set. I collect all kinds of cruets. This cruet set has a rounded sterling silver frame. The frame of this cruet set holds six beautifully cut crystal bottles.
The reason I am attracted to these elegant cruet sets is because each set has a completely different personality. The Victorians and Edwardians always graced their dining tables with these functional works of art.
This set now sits as a centerpiece on our dining room table. Many of my other cruets are found in the bathrooms with essential bath and body oils and bath salts. It's a wonderful way to display these elegant pieces throughout the house.
Cruets have been around since the 17th century. I am always fascinated with the details of such pieces. This particular crystal topper has a cruet spoon attached. This is a first for me.
I often wonder what this tiny spoon could have been used for. Perhaps for vinegar, mustard or jam?
The last "Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice" I would like to share with you is that as of last Friday we have new addition to our family. She is our three year old princess. More details to come, after the adoption is finalized.
Do you have any "Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice" stories to share?
