Where's the pillow case?

A number of years ago, my mother purchased a wonderful croched lace bedroom set from Fingerhut. I remember even as a child loving the cream colored heavy lace duvet and pillow cases. Through a series of odd events, I have ended up with two of the pillow cases while the rest of the set is at my Grandmother's house. Whenever I see these pillow cases, I think of my mother and I smile.

A few weeks ago, Valium and I were watching an episode of Buffy the Vampire slayer. There was a scene that took place in her bedroom and I could not help but notice, she had the same pillow cases on her bed. I am sure that the set designer did not get them from Fingerhut, and that they stopped selling this particular set a long time ago, but I still couldn't help but find it amusing that I own a set of pillow cases just like Buffy.

Then a couple of nights ago, I was watching an episode of Fraiser where he goes to Bora Bora on a romantic getaway and on the bed of his paradise bungalow were my mom's pillow cases again, making a the second time that I have noticed them on a television show. So now, I am going to try and spot the pillow cases as often as I can and see how many shows they make their appearance on.

I'll be sure to keep you all posted.
