Number Three on the Hit Parade - Volume Two

Here I go again - still looking for that damn bread machine manual. This is what was in the lower section of the half of the black hole, I mean kitchen cabinet, I started cleaning yesterday:
  • candles, lots of candles - 55 votive candles, eight 2-inch candles, two 12-inch drip candles - KEEP
  • 14 votive holders - 3 DONATE, 2 USE, 9 KEEP
  • a bag of tea lights - KEEP
  • a set of plastic measuring cups that stack together to look like a bee hive - DONATE
  • 4 florist vases - TRASH
  • 3 glass coasters with silver plate rims - KEEP
  • a candy tin from London - DONATE
  • a pressed glass cream pitcher - KEEP
  • a large crock from Marshall Pottery with a spigot, that is designed to hold a 3-gallon water jug - KEEP - don't know if I'll ever use it, but I am not ready to get rid of it
  • sterling silver coffee canister - KEEP
  • 4 flow blue dessert plates - KEEP - they will make good saucers to put under potted plants
  • a small silver platter - KEEP
  • 3 Currier & Ives Old Grist Mill pattern salad plates - KEEP - these go with my everyday dishes I inherited from my paternal grandmother
  • 4 Currier & Ives Old Grist Mill pattern ashtrays - KEEP - ditto above
  • 5 random pieces of silver plate cutlery - DONATE
  • 4 forks, 4 knives and a cake server all with Bakelite handles - KEEP - Daughter #1 collects Bakelite
  • a clear glass bottle - TRASH
  • A glass jar with a large assortment of car keys and house keys - KEEP until I can determine if any of them are important, then TRASH the ones we don't need
  • a rabies tag dated 1999 that belonged to my now deceased Basset Hound, Lale' - TRASH
  • an antique blue glass Ball canning jar - KEEP
  • a green glass juice jar - KEEP
  • a clear bottle with a stopper that is one of those old-timey laundry sprinkler things (you have to be at least 50 to even know what this is) - KEEP
  • a blender - KEEP
  • a food processor - KEEP
  • an insulated coffee carafe - KEEP

All of that and still no instruction manual to the bread machine! You guessed it - volume three tomorrow.
