Polishing Silver

For My Style Saturday I wanted to share one of my favorite gifts, maybe ever!!  My daughter gave me a card for Mother's Day saying she would polish my everyday silver plate flatware.  I told her that would be a lot of work, and thanked her for the thought. 

I came down Thursday morning to my knives drying on a towel.  Then when I came down to eat my cereal Friday morning all the spoons were gone.  Fortunately there was one in with the forks so I could eat.  :-)  They were back, drying on the same towel an hour later.


Friday night she returned the forks she had taken after returnnig the spoons and took the soup spoons and serving pieces.  She was back in a couple of hours.  As you can see I have a lot of flatware.  Wasn't this a lovely gift?  She does live in our basement apartment with her husband and baby, which made it easier, I guess.  She said she polished it all while watching TV and it made her feel more productive.  What a darling girl. 

Thanks Molly!
