Dear Glass Chatroom board members,
I am so sorry to inform you that my mother, Irene, passed away Aug. 2.
She so loved having you to check in on and chat with. She often updated me on the conversations she had with you. She appreciated all the times you helped her identify pieces of glass that she had or that I found at garage sales and estate sales.
I am so sorry that I did not inform you sooner.She was home and getting along pretty well. Her final stay in the hospital was only about 6 hours.
Sincerely,
Stephanie -

Julie, are tea sets popular in Australia? You have some beautiful pictures of tea sets.
I have a few china tea pots that I collected years ago. Also have a pewter one. Wonder how pewter goes over these days? Probably not very well. -

Today, I noticed some tiny black specks, about the size of pepper, on a piece of antique clear glass. I never noticed it before but it's been in storage for many years. Today, I washed it in soap suds and rinsed... spots still there.. then tried 1 tablespoon in enough water to cover the top of vase (turned upside down in a bowl) now I am trying vinegar water. I have used a soft scrubby after each soaking except this one that is still soaking. I am getting nowhere. I can't think what caused the tiny black specks. About a month ago, I fastened some bubble wrap around the vase & fastened it with scotch tape & stored it in a cardboard box in the spare room. I did not notice the spots when I re-wrapped it a month ago in bubble wrap & scotch tape around the top and bottom to fasten it.. Before that I had it wrapped in newspaper. I wonder if the scotch tape caused it?
So what do you think caused the tiny black specks and how do I get rid of them. Thanks for any help.

don't feel bad about 3 shots in the eye. My DH, Jack, has had a dozen shots in the eyeball so far .
I held his hand the first few times but he has been on his own after that.

Shelly, you night want to try the "poor man's dip". Mother made a white sauce, added sugar to taste & cinnamon. Serve it warm over strawberry shortcake made with homemade biscuits. Very good.
She also made creamed peas in individual pastry cups that would melt in your mouth.
She was a wonderful cook & she and my dad had a restaurant. -

Nancy, thanks for looking that up.
I did a quick lookup under books but did not follow thru. I guess I should have, but the prayer book went for $40.00. Someone got a good deal. Another item got my attention but it went in the hundreds and I did not bid because it was too expensive for me and not really the type of thing I'm interested in; but a relative is. -

Hi,
Anyone familiar with a book by SIDDUR AUODAT Israel Book. It's in a decorative case, gold color with an aqua stone in each corner. It measures 3.75" x 3".
Has English translations.
Any idea of value? It has a bit of roughness on corners (inside book' pages & a bit wrinkled but overall very nice condition.It's coming up for auction tomorrow & I might bid on it if I can find out about it.

Shelly, the bowl measures 9- 7/8 diameter and 3- 1/2" tallest point. It's purple.
Carl, we did hold it up to light. Must be purple (amethyst)
It's a beauty even if it is a repro from the 1960s or 1970s

JimL, I have the feeling we will get hit hard in a week or so. This weather is too good to be true. It's been a big savings on fuel so far, so a littlemore money for Christmas gifts. Salvation Army here says donations are dowm. One woman gave a gold coin wrapped in a $100. bill. Some people must have it, right?
Also, an over sized Pearl ring surrounded with diamonds turned up and Police are looking for the right owner. Hope they find her.
Meanwhile..... ho. ho!
p.s. a package we mailed Nov. 23, 2015 is still floating around the Post Office circuit. The buyer in Seattle has been so nice about it. We hope it gets to him before Christmas!
Phones at the Distribution Center in Cincinnati, Ohio won't take calls! Wonderful l!!!!!!!
