I LOVE that giant fork and spoon. My mom had one in her kitchen when I was growing up (hey it was the 70's) I would have scooped them up for sure! You got a great price on them. I would never have thought of adding the bow, but I really like how it added a feminine touch to it. The bell jar is wonderful too. <BR/>Thanks for adding Suzannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09305115475768268004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13907926.post-50527168267169099532008-10-03T12:51:00.000-07:002008-10-03T12:51:00.000-07:00Hi Cindy,I like the giant fork and spoon just the ...Hi Cindy,<BR/><BR/>I like the giant fork and spoon just the way they are.
