      ummmm....I would buy more than one pair - weird nostalgic reaction to my own childhood experience with a shaker collection and interest in being supportive of the initiative to find good homes for the shakers while you are moving on...so...can I still purchase some shakers?

      I am particularly touched by this project because my grandmother had a collection of shakers. I had wanted a pair after she died, but the wish was scrambled in passing on. I did receive the "moo cow" milk pitcher i remembered from many years of cereal, as i wished though. I'm trying to put the word out there for you to reach your goal!
