I dunno. Nancy Reagan always looked better than everyone around her. Especially her kids. With such a beautiful mother (Ronnie & Patti) and handsome father, it always made me wonder how the kids turned out homely?
In the picture you posted, I am pleased to see that someone had the courtesy & the smarts to set the table with the Reagan china, which I always thought was one of the prettiest patterns at the WH.
Even though I ended up as a Country Girl/Tomboy with chicken chit on my boots most of the time, I'm grateful to my classy Mom for teaching me 'what goes where and when and how to use it' on the Dinner Table. I think even *I* could eat off of The Reagan China and not embarass myself completely, LOL!
