"He gave it to your mother. For reason that I don't understand, she gave it back to him, and he gave it to Kit, and Kit gave it to your father, who gave it to your mother when they were married".
If you read The Beatrice Letters, then you will know that Lemony proposed to Beatrice, this is when he gave her the ring but she said no and gave it back to him
Page 229
This ring, with it's long secret history, was in your home for years and your parents never mentioned it.
(If I recall, I read in one book that at one point, the sugar bowl had been in the Baudelaire Mansion. Esme wanted this ring because well, she is greedy and it was a nice peice of jewelry

Hmmm...you're proposing that the sugar bowl is code for the R. ring? Interesting theory, very interesting. Unfortunately, it's been confirmed several times that the sugar bowl is, in fact, an actual bowl. I really wish I knew which pages confirmed that, but I know it does in TGG, at least. And then there's this, in The End:
Page 277: "Of course, in case we are banished, Beatrice is hiding a small amount in a vess-"

Page 277: "Of course, in case we are banished, Beatrice is hiding a small amount in a vess-" I'd like to think the whole "horseradish i nthe suagr bowl" thing isn't true. It simply doesn't match up with the rest of the books...
