The 'best china' cupboard

I have just given away a cut glass trifle bowl I have not used ever!  I have another larger one.  I started wondering if this were a more useful size - but given I don't use it, I realised there's not much point thinking it is useful!

This is part of the sideboard's hoard of rarely-used 'best' and 'family' items I am slowly working through.  Maybe I can sell the shot glasses on the web...  One advantage of giving it to my neighbour is that she says I can have it back if I change my mind, or borrow it if I need it, which helped me let go.

What I am grateful for today - great weather and friendly neighbours.
