This reminds me of my Mom- on Thanksgiving she walked me around the house showing me all of her things and telling me the history behind them and who she wants to have what (she almost died in May so she if focused on her own mortality right now). Looks like I am slated to get the silver coffee service and the Rosenthal china.
Since the china will be mine in many, many years (hopefully) we decided to have thanksgiving dinner on them (and the 2 year old didn't break anything!)
As for Christmas, I want a new watch and my back patio light fixed.
