A boxed set of sterling silver iced tea spoons. $200. The bowls of the spoons are shaped like cherry blossoms and the handles are shaped to imitate bamboo. The hollow handle also allows the spoon to be used as a straw. They were made in Japan in the 1940s and they measure 22cm length #cocktailtime #cocktailspoon #icedteaspoon #vintagesilver #brisbanevintage #boxedset #japanesesilver #cherryblossom #spoons (at The Antique Guild)

Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game by Michael Lewis (Non-Fiction): OK, I first heard great things about the movie, but then my husband read that the book was fabulous. I have to say that for a book about baseball (which I like, but more in person than on TV), stats, mojo, etc. etc., I thought it was great. Very entertaining, clearly written and interesting. Really, I was surprised that I liked it so much. Because Billy Beane’s story, along with the stories of other teams, players, coaches, etc., were woven throughout, the stats meant something and served as the ribbon that tied up everything. It made me wonder why some systems of doing things go on for so long without being proven to work! Highly recommended. If you’re not a baseball fan, use the lessons learned to improve the way you live your life! Didn’t someone say that once - baseball is life?
