Kacey:
I was surprised to see your china pattern. I’m looking at one that is I believe is the same one you showed. Have you had any luck in finding out what it is?
Thanks Ed

Hi Kacey, I came across your post on Noritake china while researching mine (actually I’m borrowing your picture of the china for a blogpost I’m doing ). I also have my great-grandmother’s china, Noritake, no pattern number and it looks a whole lot like yours. Mine is packed away awaiting a proper display cabinet, but I’ve come to many dead ends trying to find out more about the pattern and it’s worth (for insurance purposes). Have you made any headway? PS, I hope both 2009′s and 2010′s Thanksgiving were wonderful!

[...] Yes, things are starting to fall into place for Thanksgiving. I think I’m going to make it. I wasn’t sure after Monday’s post of the disaster I had on my hands. [...]

I know it will all come together. All of it. And nobody will know how stressful it was, because you are you.

Have a glorious Thanksgiving feast with your loved ones, Kacey.

If I don’t have a complete breakdown by Thanksgiving it will be a miracle! Of course, it’s at our home…always…no rotation here either. And we have a traditional, smoked (someone volunteered to do that this year, so nice!!), and deep fried one every year. 30 people.

Your new china is just beautiful!

I’m here to give you some words of encouragement. As one of the few remaining Americans that do not have a dishwasher, I know it can be done. First, have a nice strong cup of coffee. If you approach the job as a game, like wash all tea cups then all saucers, soup bowls, etc, the chore will be done before you know it. Oh and the china is beautiful, worth the work.

I also inherited a pre-war set of Noritake, although not quite as much as you are getting! Mine has a black band. Try Replacements.com and search the Noritake patterns…that’s how I found out the name of mine, although I can’t think of it at the moment! I feel your pain with the handwashing….that’s why I don’t use it much!

I’d say you’re totally “living in the moment.” The china patterns are beautiful—both of them! WORDS OF WISDOM: Use your china; don’t wait…
