Comments on "good" dishes make me nod my head in agreement. I just can't figure out why.....
When you buy a less expensive set of everyday dishes - so you can protect your "good" dishes - you can never break the everydayers. Drop 'em on the floor, warp 'em in the microwave, etc. But take out ONE "good" dish and BAM. Your SIL manages to drop it and it's history. Happened to me 3 times. Hence those who keep their "good" dishes in the attic......
