Show and Tell

Share your sugar bowl (via Suse at Pea Soup):

When John's dad moved from Kentucky to Texas we acquired the Fresh-O-Lator in the shedding of possessions that goes along with moving. Kentucky was my first experience with living in a humid climate, and I had been grossed out by the musty smell that sugar would pick up in the dampness. The Fresh-O-Lator solved that problem, and has had sugar in it non-stop ever since. It holds a five pound bag of sugar, is convenient enough for spooning into tea or cereal, and is big enough to scoop out of for baking. I've purchased a couple more on e-Bay in varying stages of condition, but this is the original.

This is what gets used for company, or occasions when I have to schlep the coffee to a meeting at school. It's my only Wedgwood, these two pieces of Countryware. We got them in exchange at a liquidator in Phoenix when we returned a non-functional piece of stereo equipment we had purchased. They didn't offer refunds, but when they said we could have store credit, I already knew what I wanted. They are perfect, and I like to hold them.
