My cereal box said "Embrace Life!" Shut up. I just gave up cereal and had a banana. Fruit doesn't tell you how to live, 'specially this early. Yeah, I know that cup is Jadeite, depression ware (what better term for mornings) the Jane Ray pattern. I was lucky enough to get the whole set before Martha Fucking Stewart started on it and make the prices go up so only moguls and worlds leaders can get it. That fucking bitch. I've been waking myself up by reading BedBugsAnd Ballyhoo..she's linked here. An intelligent woman who cracks me up. And watching Miss Tia's You Tube journal. LMAO! You'll have to ask her how to find it, she might want it kept a secret for all I know. Thank you my smart funny bloggin' readers for waking me up.*
There's more smart funny women linked here, but, I'm almost awake now. I'll catch up on the rest later. And if you think YOUR blog is smart and funny, send it in (not limited to the female gender, that's just what I got.) The everyday life and amazing thoughts of readers are much more interesting than idiot clebs at 7 am. Hugssssss..and have some coffee.

That coffee cup looks the ones my parents had back in 60's and they'd get chipped and the coffee would stain the chipped part. We had those things all over the place. No big deal back then. So MS started on it? I betcha they came from Woolworths and cost about 10 or 15 cents each back then. I still see them at yard sales and junk shops. Sometimes they aren't even chipped! But I can't drink coffee anymore and I have tons of mugs and cups. I have dozens that come from diners, that thick heavy stuff that has the green lines painted around the tops? I love them. But can't use them. Maybe MS will start a thing for old diner ware and I can make some cash!
thanks DD!!!
Nope, i don't want to keep it a secret!

i like glass like that too...flea markets are a good place to find it...also estate sales...and treasure hunting! people through out amazing stuff! i've gotten some of those cups in the trash!
Martha didn't start it, her interest ran the prices up. They came free during the great depression in oatmeal and laundy soap boxes. Now they're a hot collector item. I just like 'em, they're sturdy and useful..and pretty. I use all mine. I have plates, saucers, mugs, teacups, salt and peps, sugar,creamers,pickle and condiment jars and boxes. Oh, and refridgerator jars for water. All in the green..but, it came in other colors too.
i like all the bright colors.....things were made to LAST back then...unlike today....
Lotsa jadeite on ebay Dishy!! I've been looking at it all morning. Thanks for something else to get hooked on! LOL!!
There's a really pretty syrup pitcher on there.....gotta go bid!
my mother had part of her great aunt's noritake pink azalea china....of course i was suppose to get it, but since my mother is insane she sold it all for $100!! the platter alone is worth almost $1000!! That was years ago....
that china set was awesome, bread & butter plates, powdered sugar shaker, demitasse set, luncheon plates with a ridge built in for coffee cups, tea pitcher, water pitcher, vases, etc....
if i ever win the lottery i'm buying a set!
Noritake is so delicate and beautiful. I'm too clumsy to collect it. And too poor.
I'm just here for the coffee mug. I want it.
the thing about the noritake i know is all the pieces...i mean does any china place today make butter pat plates? salt cellars? powdered sugared shakers? it's just amazing...
and expensive...my great aunt got her set as a wedding present in the 1920s....
