She also collected grocery store dishes and my sis has those now (I think...I need to check on that). <br /><br />Like you I have some beautiful chine brought over from Japan after WWII by my grandmother and given to me. Also we rarely use them because I won't put them in the dishwasher! I like your having different sets....if I had the storage space I would have lots of different ones, just service for 4.

The china she gave you is very pretty, and the fact she put the set together little by little makes it even more special.

Having a lunch with them now and then is awesome. <br />I too always have moments of thoughts and memories when my parents birthdays come. I miss them so much. <br />My mother used to collect tea cups and I inherited them. I also got her lovely china which we added more too it. I use this as part of my Christmas decorations and also for special holiday meals during Christmas time.<br />Blessings for stimulating my memories today!
