Lost & found kitchenware in Mobile

Lost utensils near Bienville Square, Mobile

I lost my utensils this morning around 8:40 a.m. while I was at Bienville Square in downtown Mobile, near the fountain and the food trucks. I had my tote on a bench while I chatted with a vendor about a neighbor's recipe, and when I stood to leave, the set—two wooden-handled spoons, a battered spatula, and a dented steel fork—vanished. I retraced a loop along Dauphin Street, past the old oaks toward the Mobile Civic Center, but no sign of them. These utensils belonged to my grandmother; memories swirl with every clink of a plate, and losing them today hit harder than I expected. If anyone finds a mismatched set near the square, please keep them safe and let me know they’ve been found.
