These are a few of my favorite things...

Aren't they beautiful??? The white ones (Mikasa) are so sweetly elegant, yet sturdy enough for everyday use. And the birds (Lenox) - I can't help it. I love them! They are so quaint and vintage-looking.

Humbled by this aspiration...

"... Consecrated, affectionate women who are not afraid of work or of filth of any kind, moral or material. Women who can nurse a baby or teach a child to wash and comb as well as to read and write, women who can tactfully smooth over a roughness and for Christ's sake bear a snub, and take any place which may open. Women who can take everything to Jesus and there get strength to smile and persevere and pull on under any circumstances."

- Mary Slessor, in a petition for women workers for the mission field.

Simply fun :-)
