What fun … I loved your photo reminders of home … and find myself smelling sugar cookies and pies with thin flakey homemade crusts baking. It’s been YEARS since my mom was around for those things … or to play carols on the piano for us to all gather ‘roung to sing along.
Hugs and blessings,

In the first photo, I thought is was a reed diffuser. My parents and parents in law have small barrel toothpick holders. Whenever I see someone else with one, it reminds me of the ones from our parents’ homes.

the first macro I thought it was a fish!
My parents have been gone so long, but I have my moms old pie plates, a couple of bowls (cried when one broke)
I don’t have anything that reminds me of my dad, except my temper.

I’m a little late today, but I have posted my Macro Monday. Tell Dennis this is just a sampling of the 1957 cars we talked about and I’ll be putting more on Flickr.

Great post Lisa! Family is so important. I have the same feelings for some of the stuff my mother has held onto for several years.
