chicken in every pot....I don't eat poultry..............and I certainly don't enjoy being awakened early in the morning by roosters crowing as I was during my village stay in France. However I've always enjoyed those ornamental roosters strutting their stuff in lovely country style kitchens. Standing on counters and islands, proudly eyeing cooks as they go about their daily stovetop stirring, but always very colorful as rooster feathers are.
My kitchen is decorated in neutral tones and I love white and cream china, so imagine my surprise at finding this handsome boy at Homegoods recently. How could I resist him at a real bargain price. Tall, the china slightly crazed and one tiny tail feather chip, which of course makes him immediately vintage looking..................and all that wonderful fruit at his feet including my favorite pears!
