We have had lots of hilarious late night chats while here at M&K's, and the plates came up. I knew we would get grilled by M for making this purchase, so I tried to use my eco-friendly reasoning with him. Being the 'green soul' that he is...I thought this was my only way to win this discussion.
The sad part is, I have even wondered at times if 36 was enough!! (Okay, I am still wondering....)
Last night while reading about something completely unrelated on Apartment Therapy, I found this post about these people who bought 160 white plates!!! Yeah, someone more crazy than us. I love these people, and I love their rationale...and all the comments that follow. I immediately announced this article to Sean and K who were in the room with me, and sent it to M, hoping he would read it when it popped up on his iPad upstairs! M said it is just proof that you can always find something on the internet to back up what is not true....bottom line, I am still happy with my purchase. Where do you stand?

This is too funny....I was just thinking about investing in a set of white plates, because I don't have enough plates for a dinner party, and I feel guilty using disposable.
ReplyDeleteThis article made me feel a little less crazy!
Come join the crazies, Caroline! I am so happy to have the plates! Thanks for the comment!
ReplyDeleteall of our dishes -- everyday, sunday and fine china are white! I love white dishes!
ReplyDeleteI am 100% for the obsessive buying of white plates! They will last for-e-ver because white never goes out of style. And since you have so many, it won't be terribly upsetting if/when a few of them break! We have white dinner plates {just 8, though ;)} and I really want to buy more!
