Flood Page 3 - More Cleaning


Now it's time to clean up the small stuff.  There were two sets of china stored in the basement, carefully packed in boxes with paper between the plates.  All wet!  And muddy.
This is a set for 12, bought in the 1960s.  There are dinner, lunch, salad, bread and butter plates, coffee cups, saucers, bouillon cups, and serving pieces.


D carefully washed the foam plate-separators, and the living room becomes the drying room.


These plate packagers needed scrubbing, too.


All set!




Years ago, we splurged on a set of Noritake for the younger daughter.
It was an amazingly complete set, and it was fun to dole out a few pieces for each event.
And there was still one more box.
That had to be scrubbed and has been repackaged for her to pick up.



Cookie cutters have all kinds of corners for mud to settle in.
A toothbrush helped.
 Now we're set for Christmas Cookies.

These very-50s stemware were covered in mud.

And if you were wondering. . .

The pizzelle iron does work!!!
