We had one also. It reminded me that Julia Cooper Warren bought everything. There was nothing new that came out that she did not consider buying. And she never threw anything away. I have always thought that there would be a time when her house would collapse under the weight of purchases.
Anyway, I sent it out today. Amazing how many people still have them. Julia probably has 50 that she used to decorate the Governor's Mansion or Storming Bull or bought them to give away and forgot about them. I have trouble dealing with stock-piling. My ex-husband used to say that you had to read the paper in the morning because I pitched it by noon. I was not a craftsy person--no shock at all to family--it seems that craftsy people keep everything --they think that they may find a use for that crap at a later time!
Sorry about the "crap" term; it just works for me!
