I am so excited to have won. I feel like I am making a speech at the academy...Thank you to Mikasa & StoneGable for the fabulous gift. I am just so excited to have new china coming to my house. We've been married 39 yrs and our formal china rarely gets used because it requires hand washing. I love the Italian Countryside because it can be dressed up or used as an everyday setting. It will be both. I can pitch or push to the back, the cheap glass that hubby and I have been using of late. Once again thank you so much for this beautiful china. (I sent an email to your gmail address. I am so excited that it was the only one that I could locate!)
Oh, and thank you all for your gracious 'congratulations'. I am sure that you all had a sigh of disappointment when you saw someone else's name. Been there...done that!

Congrats to Sew Consult, great gal. I don't know what blog Lisa is from? Congrats to her too!

Great giveaway, thanks for the chance.

I need to apologize to Yvonne for not using her real name in my "thank you" post. I was so excited that my mind was thinking about the blog address, so that I could send the link to my daughters.

Congratulations to Lisa, also. One of my daughters let me know that I could look for a piece or 2 to go with my new set under the Christmas tree. The gift that keeps on getting better!

Looks like I missed the party, but I'm sure your winners are thrilled with such a great prize! Congrats on the anniversary. We are still here aren't we? Although it gets harder to keep up with everything at least for me.

We were out of town for 2 weeks and then I spent a week getting things back to normal after being gone. This week I'm trying to get back into the blogging a bit. I think I need to schedule "working hours" instead of waiting until I have the free time!
