Dad’s parents, Momo and Popo, had these plates— with their nicknames written at the bottom of each one— hanging in their kitchen when I was a kid. On the back of one plate, it says Mom’s late sister, Shirley, made them in 1961. Mom must have commissioned Aunt Shirley to craft the plates, and then given them to Momo and Popo as a gift. Momo is wearing Bow Tie o’ the Day, while Popo is sporting Tie o’ the Day. Clearly, even the crafted tie doesn’t fall far from the tree. 👔 🌳 🍎
