I inherited silver from both my Grandmothers - tea service, cutlery, serving utensils, etc. My aunts think I keep it for sentimental reasons. We use it all at big family gatherings. Little do they know that it's all part of my "just in case" supplies.
We inherited some nice china,and bought a bit more,we use it daily because you only live once.
Would love a sterling silverware set,have a friend who uses hers daily.
Nothing like eating off of and with quality substantial utensils.
Got our cast iron,after being brought up to speed on that its our #1 go to cookware,only SS for a few things.Lesson from my parents that I'd forgot about,dummy!
Yup,more cost upfront but it lasts generations,cheaper by buying REAL quality from the get go.
============================
For barter? Foodstuffs,knife sharpening and maybe some solar and health things,have a friend who is an herbologist (is that correct?) and we will be working together in It hit the fan times,though hopefully that never happens.
