Some Recent Charity Shop Finds
I have been meaning to share these little finds for a while but my memory being what it is I kept forgetting and at a time when I was struggling with writers block to actually post anything. But hey better late then never and it actually fits in with a lot of the posts this week which have been drink related.
I chanced upon this punchbowl set - it is a really large one with matching cups and hooks and a ladle and had a floral impressed design on the bowl and the cups. I must say I am very chuffed with it. I already have one but thought that it would be good to have a second so that when we get to the stage with the garden where it is more or less sorted I can have a "garden party" and have alcoholic as well as soft drink libations to hand. So potentially that is 24 people to cater for. Can't wait - I love entertaining especially when it is good weather.
Not bad for wait for it
I also found these Egg coddlers one large one and three small ones. They are not a matching set only two of them are the same pattern but I like them all the same. They are all by Royal Worcester and was £6 for the four. However I have had a quick look on Ebay and I may be able to match them up quite reasonably.
I have never had coddled eggs but it is something I am going to try as I think what you can do with them can be pretty special.
Here are a few links on You Tube
It seems to be reading between the lines that you can use more or less anything. Am going to have a play with this as I love soft eggs. I quite like the idea of smoked salmon with lovely soft egg for Christmas morning - what a lovely way of serving eggs.
Catch you later.
