The Latest Addition to a Collection

As I was appreciating my kitchen ornament collection one more time before packing it back up till next winter, I realized I hadn’t featured a new addition. Back in the before times, in the beginning of 2020, when I stopped in at the Museum of Science and Industry to see Colleen Moore’s Fairy Castle (Other People’s Collections V) I also stopped in at the gift shop and found a ceramic egg carton ornament with a red label with great graphics and a red and white checked gingham ribbon. It obviously belonged in my kitchen ornament collection.

I hung it at the end of one section next to the Hallmark “pinch of love” mixing bowl and the gingerbread cookie sheet that was one of our first purchased Christmas tree ornaments. It moved from the tree to the kitchen after I began collecting the cooking ornaments.
