This old mom loves the old kitchen stuff from this unit, that whisk is too cool:-) Love watching ya'lls videos, not many young men do much with their moms, you remind me of how my sons and me get along:-) I know some complain of how long your videos run sometimes but I personally love them, makes me feel like I'm exploring, which I loved doing as a child:-) Disability does not let me do much anymore.........Anyways, please, keep up the way you do your videos and just know some of us, it's more than just being entertained for an hour or so.....it gives us a few moments to dream too.........

Anytime I've seen Community flatware, it's always silver plated. This is from a silverware reference site: "Community Plate is one of the brands or "marks" of silver-plated flatware made by the Oneida Community beginning in 1899." Some people collect some of the nicer old silver plate so you might still be able to get something for it. Seriously, have someone look over the Asian art, boxes and pottery. If they're authentic...my gosh you won't believe how much it's worth!!! I can't wait to see part two! Happy birthday, Wade!

That silver bread basket cleans up well. I have one that looked like that. I put a layer of aluminum foil in the sink. Sprinkled baking soda over the foil. Put the discolored silver bowl in and poured boiling water over. Use tongs (so that you don't burn yourself.) and keep turning the item until all the discoloration is gone. Easy! Follow with a silver polishing cloth if you have one.
