Last weekend on our visit to Dorset I bought a lovely little green glass dish, its quite an unusual shape. Does anyone know what it was originally used for please?
on Monday Evening I started a cold - not that unusual, except Tuesday morning I felt so rotten I couldn't get out of bed. I had all the usual symptoms of temperature, sore throat, streaming cold, aches and pains but I also felt as though my legs wouldn't hold me up and I lost my appetite. I spent some time knitting which has speeded up progress on my shawl wonderfully. I am up to row 87. I have also slept quite a bit, and yesterday I made a Bounding Bunnypin which
Jenny had designed. Sadly I managed to mess up one ear but Em thought he was cute, so instead of throwing him away I stitched a safety pin to the back and she pinned him to her Ikea heart cushion
. Hopefully I have turned the corner now and life will resume its normal pace soon. Happy Weekend and Happy Mothers Day for Sunday to all Mums around the British Isles. Jane x

I hope you're feeling better! I wish I could make you some pie!
ReplyDeleteThe bunny is really cute! I don't know for sure about the little green dish but it might have been used for gravy or candy. I would use it for candy or for a side dish like a sauce or jelly.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better soon!
Get well soon. I love the dish, but can't help with its original usage.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon Jane. The glass bowl is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog. So jealous that you were in Dorset, I spent much of my childhood there at my Granny's. Love that bunny pin you made and I adore the bears in your avater. Beary Hugs, Catherine and my Bumpkin Bears x
ReplyDeleteThe Bounding Bunnypin is so sweet and in one of my favourite colours too. I think maybe your glass dish is a flower bowl which may have originally had what was called a 'frog', which would have held the flowers in place - look up Davidson glass. I hope you have thrown off that horrible cold bug by now. x
