I'm familiar with Mason's Mandalay pattern as I have a small bowl, a gift from my SIL who used to sell for Mason's. She traveled to Germany from London in the '70's as apparently the china is very popular there.<br /><br />Hugs - MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3123979443065030493.post-10963954099715478652012-03-07T21:09:47.553+00:002012-03-07T21:09:47.553+00:00Beautiful finds, Rose!

I have already moved the furniture as you suggested, and it is a definite improvement! Crazy about those bulbs! Oh, well, I'd plant them anyway.

Now, with Spring coming up, I will be disappointed. That's funny how they're already starting to sprout before they're planted.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16938178631385143773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3123979443065030493.post-31832195020896505552012-03-03T20:47:09.383+00:002012-03-03T20:47:09.383+00:00I love your finds and I am sure your bulbs will do...I love your finds and I am sure your bulbs will do good anyway.<br />happy gardening we just got another snow storm so no gardening for awhile.<br />Cathyacorn hollowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503414190541111706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3123979443065030493.post-9744025670008622312012-02-28T20:05:45.553+00:002012-02-28T20:05:45.553+00:00Hi Rose, Glad I'm not alone with the bulb conf...Hi Rose, Glad I'm not alone with the bulb confession! Found my Lily of the Valley and a beautiful Iris at the weekend, must get planting.

I did ...I have the same dirty little secret you do. I did get a lot of bulbs planted outside this fall but I had saved some crocus and muscari to force indoors. And there's no way I can plant them out now as winter finally returned to ND.<br /><br />I also was disappointed in several of my amaryllis. My cheap $6.00 bulb did not bloom at all and my $14.00 bulb was supposed to be "Apple Blossom" but turned out to be an ugly orangish red. However, I loved my $20.00 mail order bulb. From now on I will spend more to get more. I got 17 blooms from it and it is shooting out some more green right now.<br /><br />Dan had a good CAT scan - will blog about that soon.<br /><br />I did disable word verification but then I started getting awful spam comments so enabled it again. Sorry! If you are terribly frustrated you can e-mail a comment to me and I will post it for you!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17693598787241469220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3123979443065030493.post-55330528864460302252012-02-27T18:37:24.544+00:002012-02-27T18:37:24.544+00:00I don't think they will mind...the bulbs I mea...I don't think they will mind...the bulbs I mean!! they will looks lovely when they do come up.

My ground is still frozen, so I brought in some big pots to plant them in, but still haven't done it. Also, the amaryllis bulbs just might get planted outside this year. The one I planted at school last spring came home with me in May because it just wouldn't grow. It finally did bloom when my daughter got married in July!♥♫Marilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13116154641827479893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3123979443065030493.post-26794269341439208882012-02-26T21:48:20.458+00:002012-02-26T21:48:20.458+00:00Rose,

Any ideas where my birth certificate file is at the mo???? Gawd knows in this house. Lovely Wedgwood and Masons finds there .. I am kicking myself at the mo for not buying a Hammersley strawberry & cream set at the CB this morning.
