Found Goodies

I have had the bug for thrift stores lately seems I have to go everyday or every other day anyway. I have found some really nice dishes that I like. Now the thrift stores here can't compare to larger cities but once in a while I find goodies. I liked this creamer with the pheasant on it and have a couple plates hanging and setting in my office with quails on them.
                                                               

I think it will look good on my table with my brown and white transfeware dishes for Thanksgiving. I found a couple others also in white ironstone. The 2 plain little pitchers
                                               
                                                                 

Then I seen this heart shaped colander and wonder what it'd purpose was for 

I looked it up and it's for making cheese and you use a cheese cloth inside. It's a Williams Sonoma dish made in France and Ina on Barefoot Contessa once used it on her show if you watch the cooking shows. I don't anymore since they took Paula Deen off I still believe she took a terrible wrap for her brothers wrong doing.Go on the internet and type apilco and this dish will come up and what it's used for. I thought that was interesting. I will use mine for decoration only,not making cheese LOL 

I like anything from Williams Sonoma stores. I have a silver Ruffoni pan that I love and use often 

I am really enjoying our warmer than usual weather here in central Missouri also . It's been in 80's and since our rain last night it's going to be in 70's I think next couple weeks anyway.
