Addie, some silver plated stuff has a hallmark. When I was trying to figure out what various pieces were, that I got from my mum, I found this site and saw that there were hallmarks for silver plate, as well as for sterling silver.

I don't want to spend a lot of time polishing, so I use the silver every day. But, when the mood strikes me, I can really enjoy polishing silver.
...Later, they both were able to walk in and swim, turn in the water and go back to the shore. They did swim a lot after that. They even used their tails as rudders! Too cute!

I was talking with my daughter and she told me my grandson asked, "why can't we live with Grampy?!". Needless to say I was very happy to hear that.
Last night we were having much fun listening to the pronunciation of street names coming from Google Maps on Stirling's tablet. We celebrated my friend's birthday. I can easily find my way to and from her house, but from and to her house and downtown Montreal can be an adventure. Last night it turned into a mini-adventure while taking my friend home. As I was driving on the highway, we found that a portion had been closed for construction and we were diverted towards the bridge that goes across the Saint Lawrence River to the South Shore. Google Maps directed us to an alternative route, one I would never have figured out by myself.
Most of the streets on the Island of Montreal have French names. OMG, some of the pronunciations were hilarious. Some were unintelligible. We left the map directions on all the way home, just to hear the funny pronunciations. There were also the surprise getting-it-right. It said boulevard Saint John. The street is spelled Saint-Jean. We would have expected it say Saint Jeeen. Saint John is the correct English version of that street name and used by many Anglos.
That's for sure, Katie. I'm not sure why this is but I'm going to keep doing what I've been doing and hope it lasts.

Ah, what a great reward for not killing your daughter during her teen years.*
* Not implying that your daughter was a handful.
I am amazed to this day that I allowed either of my daughters to live past the age of 11.
The last thing that made me smile...going on a "date" with my sweetheart last night. It was an unexpected treat and a wonderful evening. I'm still smiling.
