Yesterday, right after talking on the phone to my friend Joe, who had just received Jan’s ashes, my best friend Laural texted me from a hospital where she had been admitted with congestive heart failure, severe edema, and Covid. She had been on a cruise with her husband and several friends in Hong Kong. She started feeling ill while still on the cruise. She got back to the Chicago area on Tuesday evening and by Thursday evening she was in the hospital. She has battled congestive heart failure before. Obviously, this is very worrying. We’ve been best friends since I was 12.
Please, if you would be so kind, send prayers her way. I haven’t checked in with her today, but will after I’ve finished this post. Needless to say, I woke up way too early today. Too much on my mind, I guess.
Today’s egg cups are double egg cups. The bottom is narrower and meant for a hard boiled egg. The wider top is for a soft boiled egg.
These are transferware egg cups. The one on the left was one of my first purchases. It’s brown transferware from Mason’s Vista in England. The middle egg cup is Flow Blue. Since there is no identifiable mark, I don’t know who the maker was. On the right, a red transferware cup from Johnson Brothers in England.
Stay safe.
Happy Saturday.
