It Will Be Spring Soon...

And spring is the time we plan to move here.  It will be a bittersweet time.  I have bought up some "new" retired Corelle dinnerware on ebay, to replace my heavy stoneware.  My back and shoulders won't handle cumbersome items that are stored above my head.  It I store things up in cupboards, they will stay there, and we will eat off paper plates.  So out with the old and in with the new old.  Summer Blush pattern with colorful, red, yellow and purple pansies on them will work well with the kitchen colors and fixtures.  I had been looking at Corelle for a  while, but couldn't find a pattern that I liked.  Then I went on ebay and found this pattern, and I've now bought piecemeal, all the pieces that I think I'll need.  I'm debating the matching canister set.  I have a set of bean pots that I use as canisters which I received as a wedding present way long time ago.  I have a sentimental attachment to them, but don't know if I should carry on with them.  They are VERY HEAVY and from about 1970.  Maybe I could use them somewhere else...
