My First "Show Us Your Rooster" Party



This is the first Show Us Your Rooster party I have participated in. Unfortunately, I almost forgot that it was for toady. Thank you, Barb, for hosting this meme.















Please make sure you check out the other roosters and maybe a couple of hens that will attend Show Us Your Rooster party.

Hi Mimi! Oh, what a wonderful Rooster table you've set! I just found a clear chicken tureen like yours last week. I need another one. Your dishes are so pretty too.
This is so much fun.
Be a sweetie,

OMGoodness. My Mom used to have a collection of those glass hen dishes. She had all different colors, amber, green, blue, clear, etc. I will have to ask her what happened to them.

So many things you have bring back memories of my Moms and Grandmas things. Great table. I'm a Rooster kind of girl too.
