Darlene what was it? 

Smoothie 😋 D I love your lamp friend!! 🤗🤗😍💜💚 

JC- thank you! It’s a treasure that I found in an antique shop. I have been wanting one like it for too many years 😁 I hope you’re doing well sweet friend ❤️ 

Chestnut- it is a mixed berry smoothie. I meant to take a photo when I started enjoying it, but it was so good that I almost forgot the photo entirely! 😂  

Darlene you just enjoy and I'll just imagine.  

I love antiques 🤗🥰 I like mixing old things with modern😊😊 I’m doing great my friend ♥️😘💜💚 

Jcmama I am an antique you'll find me in all the best junk shops! 

How fun 🌰🤗 my mom and dad are huge collectors of antiques. And super big old doll collectors. 

Russian dolls? 

Jumeau dolls are some of the most prized in their collection. Brue dolls.. etc. They have a whole bedroom that’s a doll museum ♥️ 

WOW Jcmama your parents have good taste and a lovely kind daughter. I ❤ 

JC- my antique collection is quite eclectic. It has no rhyme or reason, if I find something interesting I scoop it up lol! I LOVE the jumeau dolls! I collect matryoshkas. There’s a doll museum a few blocks from where I live. It is quite amazing! I love going and just admiring the dolls and daydreaming. It appeals to the little girl in me 😃  

Cool D☺️ I have random antique treasures too🤗 my mom has the dolls all labeled lol. It’s her passion ♥️ She has some Frieke I think that’s how you spell that, that are so old there eyes have changed color to like the vampires in Twighlight 😍 I love all the girly things too like fancy egg cups🥰 I have quite the lil collection ☺️ Awe thank you 🌰🧡💜💚 

JC- egg cups I find interesting! You should share a pic sometime! My grandma had loads of them that she collected over the years. I loved looking at them. I’ll never know what happened to them 😢 She had some different ones that she would use daily. Soft boiled eggs of course every time that I stayed over. I always thought that they were so fancy lol! You’re momma must be awful proud of her dolls, as well she should be. I know that she would enjoy the museum near me. I spend hours there a few times a year. They also have special groups of collectors come from all around to share their treasures quite often. I even like to be there when they unpack the dolls, it’s quite an undertaking. I’d be nervous to travel with such collections lol!  

Chestnut- the jumeau dolls are french i believe. 🤔 i collect the russian nesting dolls. Matryoshka they are called. Even my grandsons find them interesting.  

Darlene I always bow to beautiful ladies I am just a fool I do apologise. ❤ 

I will post a pic☺️☺️💕🥰🥰 wifey loves them too!! Such a wonderful memory 😇♥️ My sister and I would watch Shirley Temple in A Little Princess with mom. Such a fond memory especially when we were so young and innocent ☺️💕
