[QUOTE="bercrystal, post: 146812, member: 88"]I have a large pitcher originally from a wash set that my oldest sister gave me 40 years ago.

I remember making Kool-Aid in it as a child because to me it was just a large pitcher. :D She was afraid if the horse's patoot she was married to ever found out it had belonged to Harold's family it would end up in a million pieces. I was the only person who had any connection to it, so I became its custodian. It is sad because there is no connection anymore & some day it will end up in box lot at an auction I am sure. :( Peggy[/QUOTE]
