BUT, before I looked any further, I had to stop and read this post about Woolworths! Gosh, my first job out of high school was being a waitress at one!! And I was terrible! LOL<br />I also ate lunch at different ones, when I was a little girl....such fond memories. I'm definitely going to get your friend's book, too!!<br />Great to "meet" you! You have a wonderful blog.BECKYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15184458949017900541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065490102351812097.post-42782777902914200882012-02-29T19:28:05.165-05:002012-02-29T19:28:05.165-05:00Hi Shirley, thank you for the lovely memories.

I don't recall the dishes having a pattern, like you I seem to remember thick ironstone but what a pretty pattern those are in your tablescape! My mom's original wedding dishes were from Woolworth's and were a pretty dusty blue with a thin silver band and sort of gray blue-bell sprays that she got tired of and donated. Years later now I have to pay a lot if I can even ever find those same dishes to reminisce. Definitely going to have to find your friend's book.

I liked to shop at "Five and Dime's" as they were called, when I was a young girl. I also am impressed with that napkin fold. xoBarbara F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05650730931602700042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065490102351812097.post-67443066094678737552012-02-15T23:50:37.415-05:002012-02-15T23:50:37.415-05:00My dad worked for the rival dimestore chain, Morga...My dad worked for the rival dimestore chain, Morgan and LIndsay (we couldn't shop at WW, lol).Love your blue-and-white dishes!Rattlebridge Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07270992062886735035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065490102351812097.post-82620365558647587482012-02-12T22:25:20.974-05:002012-02-12T22:25:20.974-05:00Great table...I'm not much for blue either, fi...Great table...I'm not much for blue either, find I really like when I see someone put a blue table together!!

(I'm a very impatient little person!) You nailed it, though! I love the fresh blue & white. Very pretty! I vividly remember Woolworth's. It was very popular "back in my day" and I can remember shopping there as a teenager for lots of fun stuff. Never knew they had their own line of dishes, though! Very cool!Alycia Nicholshttp://tabletwentyone.wordpress.com/2012/02/07/chocolate-traditional/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065490102351812097.post-83908120432024010632012-02-09T19:30:17.976-05:002012-02-09T19:30:17.976-05:00I once went there and bought my mother the perfume...I once went there and bought my mother the perfume Evening in Paris.

I'm loving the plates and I'd like the memories of them too. I also gravitated to liking B&W, now I even have Hutchenreither, the onion pattern. The mugs are perfect! Happy Valentine's.
