<h4>Email From Happy Customer</h4>
<p>This week I received a very nice email from Sherry in Georgia who had purchased two <a title="Dining Stones Website" href="http://www.DiningStones.com" target="_blank">Dining Stones</a> as gifts for her parents.  Her dad, Elwood, likes his food warm during the meal and usually it would get cold by the time he finished eating.  Sherry hoped that a Dining Stone would solve that problem.</p>
<p>Both Elwood and his wife Amy, now in their 90&#8242;s,  were happy to report that the heated stone radiates up through their plate all during the meal and even the last bite of food is toasty warm.</p>
<div id="attachment_672" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-672" title="Two Happy Customers" src="http://www.diningstones.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Two-Happy-Customers-300x295.jpg" alt="Elwood and Amy from Georgia" width="300" height="295" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Elwood and Amy from Georgia</p></div>
<p>Thank you for sharing your story with us and allowing your photos to be posted on the blog.  It warms my heart (pardon the pun) to see happy customers enjoying their <a title="Dining Stones Website" href="http://www.DiningStones.com" target="_blank">Dining Stones</a>.</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
<p>Deb Chance</p>

<p>Christmas is a nostalgic time so I will take this opportunity to share the excitement from this past year and how this venture of the creation of <a href="http://www.diningstones.com/">Dining Stones™</a> played out.</p>
<p>Last Christmas I received a book, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Secret-Rhonda-Byrne/dp/1582701709">The Secret</a> by Rhonda <span class="blsp-spelling-error">Byrne</span>. I enjoyed every word and started using the concepts.  Just a couple weeks later on January 15, 2007, hubby and I were sitting at the dinner table talking about our frustration with <a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_8icUf6_t-As/R3BZ5e4wMsI/AAAAAAAAABo/WB-k_xAW2gs/s1600-h/100_0970.jpg"></a>food getting cold on the plate before we are done eating.  I wondered if there was something available for us to buy online to keep the plate warm while we were eating. We searched but didn&#8217;t find anything. I started remembering a story my dad told me when I was a kid about the cold, damp Missouri winters of his childhood.<span id="more-12"></span></p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-51 alignright" title="Snow Cabin E" src="http://diningstones.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/Snow-Cabin-E1-225x300.jpg" alt="Winter weather scene" width="225" height="300" /></p>
<p>To warm up the winter nights, my grandmother would heat stones on the wood stove and slip them between the blankets for him. I had the thought: if a stone could heat your blankets, <span class="blsp-spelling-error">couldn</span>’t it heat a plate of food as well?</p>
<div>I just happened to have a small piece of stone tile in the garage and ran out to pick it up. We put it in the oven and couldn&#8217;t believe how long it stayed hot. We placed a plate on it right away and so began the genesis for our new business venture, <a title="Dining Stones" href="http://www.diningstones.com" target="_blank"><span style="color: #800000;">Dining Stones</span></a>.</div>
