I was going into a new kitchenware store in my neighbourhood after meeting and photographing my Stranger #300 (Brad) and noticed this striking young woman and her mother who were entering the store ahead of me.
I was immediately drawn to her look and after picking out a couple of coffee mugs as gifts, saw her in the next aisle. I approached her directly and invited her to be part of my 100 Strangers project on Flickr and she said she’d be glad to. She reached out to shake hands so I put down my coffee mugs and we met. This is Clare.
Clare’s mother had drifted into the next aisle and although Clare is 19, I felt it polite that we let her mother know our plan to step outside for better light to take a couple of photos. Clare said “I think she overheard and has the concept.” In fact, her mother seemed a bit surprised when I gave her the run-down and she asked about the project but then said she was fine with it.
Not wanting to duplicate the setup I had used with Brad against the wall of this building, I took a couple of photos on the street but was not pleased with distracting background elements so we crossed the street and used the wall of Canadian Tire, the iconic hardware store, for a simple background.
Clare told me that she has friends who have taken photography at school and had to do projects so she was ok with helping me with my project. “Anything for the sake of art” was her comment.
She said she likes to read and draw and when I asked her how her friends see her she said she hopes they see her as a nice girl with a good heart. I commented that it was her eyes that had made me notice her and I wanted to make sure they showed to advantage in the photo. When I asked how her mother had reacted to her piercings she said “She was kind of freaked out at first but now she’s ok with them.” I asked how her day has gone so far (it was afternoon) she said “Well, I woke up feeling kinda good. That’s always a nice start.” She thought a bit more and said “And this [meeting you and doing your project] is pretty nice.” I was glad she felt that way.
I told Clare that her “moody” look was striking and I must admit that her appearance suggested sadness which I hope is not her frequent companion.
Back in the store I retrieved my coffee mugs and we caught up with Clare’s mother in the cash lineup. We showed her the photos and she seemed impressed. I told her I was emailing them to Clare in the next day or two. The three of us chatted while in line and I told her mother that Clare seemed like a good daughter. She smiled and said “Yes, I’m lucky to have her and her brother. Both are good kids.”
Thank you Clare, for participating in 100 Strangers. I didn’t realize it at the time, but you are Stranger #301 to initiate Round 4 of my project. I wish you a good upcoming year and happiness in life.

The utensils are Cannon Falls and are intended as miniature Christmas ornaments. The teapot is a refrigerator magnet.
I had forgotten that I finished this set up without snapping a photo! The rest of the pieces were all packed up for the move when I finally found the 502. LOVE this set so much!
I love all these treasures, to wander the flea market every month seeing all the wares, wondering who previously owned them and where they have been.

Few of my dearest kitchenware. Little mugs are both by Arabia. Probably from 1960s if I remember correctly. :-)
In the 70s, the French gas station Mobil offered a set of kitchenware to win the customer’s loyalty. The set, made by Arcopal, was created by Jean-Charles Meunier and the design is completely in tune with the 70s style: pop graphics and bright colors.
The most common pieces are the mugs –they existed in more than six color combinations- but you can also find the mocha cups, the sugar bowl, salt and pepper shakers etc

Kappabashi Dori in Asakusa,
a street/area that is famous for kitchenware and plastic food displays!
(like you find in restaurant windows).
I think this is the aerial view, right in the center:
At an equipment bazaar near Spice Bazaar which offered a wide variety of practical home equipment - utensils, tools, kitchenware - for locals and random tourists like us. Old Istanbul, Turkey
This is clearly where the pharmacy is in many Albertsons "Grocery Palace" stores, as seen here in Tupelo MS (now a Kroger): flic.kr/p/fxi12f. Looks like this old pharmacy here in Hickory Hill has been repurposed more than once!

Found a few pieces of Pyrex at goodwill at home today. I'm glad I don't frequent this goodwill, their prices have gotten outrageous. They had more Pyrex but it was just too expensive!
I was very happy to find the turquoise 401 in excellent condition! The daisy bowl needs a lot of work, I'll be scrubbing it with some corningware cleaner tomorrow!
For sale in a village fair organized by the various color Soil crafting like toys from the household utensil, kitchenware,
I fell in love with this but didn't buy it, I went home and told my husband how gorgeous it was and how much I loved it and he took me the next day to buy it all for me :) I love him!!!
I started putting this bowl set together almost 2 years ago when I picked up the largest bowl (404). It is my absolute favorite set and I am SO happy to finally complete it! I ended up finding the last bowl (403) for under $20 on ebay including shipping, couldn't pass it up! The bowl was extremely well packaged and in awesome condition!
Seriously so happy :)
SET 4 – Oxford Kroger, Post-Expansion
Behind the produce department and facing the rear actionway, we find the kitchenware area, in a definitely much more detailed and dedicated space than prior to the expansion and remodel. Back while the construction was all still happening, we saw this area in progress, with its initial hanging décor – that stuff looked a little worse for the wear, which was a shame given it was literally brand new, haha! Thankfully, as you can see here, like some other areas in the store (e.g. the café, the vestibule thank you signage, etc.), that was replaced with the newer, hopefully sturdier décor shown here.

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
