At breakfast, at the Belvedere, Robert, the owner showed us a beautiful soup spoon (turned up on one side so you can slurp better)....it had a filigreed pattern on the bottom and was signed by Paine Jr. It was cast from iron on the Mayflower!! I was so overwhelmed to be holding such a treasure, I never thought to take a picture of it! Am I nuts?! I love seeing things with history.
As we walked through South Yarmouth, we came upon a garage sale....and found this adorable antique pewter cream and sugar set...it's beat up, well used, and I LOVE it! And a bargain at $2. I'm not much into the standard tourist souvenirs....so this fit the bill.
FYI: Do you know what a Belvedere is? I didn't.....it means beautiful view, and it is the window room built at the top of a house roof, just big enough to climb up and see the view from all directions....kind of like a widow's walk, only walled in with windows at the top. Just a bit of useless information for you to store.
Be blessed as you go about your day....thanks for stoppin' by.
