I love dishes...alot...I heart dishes...I had an idea last year to collect misc. dishes to use for a friend's wedding...then I went to a wedding where they did this...their plan was even better then I had thought of and it was wonderful, truly wonderful...so I have been searching for dishes, which has fed my love (close to a fetish) of dishes even more, now I have an excuse to search, find, bargin, stack and admire...I found this box of dishes at a church rumage sale...fine, you are right, they are not for the wedding...they are for my kitchen...can you believe how cool they are?? Set of 12!!! Brady Bunch green, all sorts of pieces, Martha Stewart would be proud of the place settings I could create, I just may invite her for an outdoor event...the box was marked $10, after a small amount of bargining the official lady wearing a yellow smock, armed with stickers and a marker said I could have this treasure trove for $7 and put the official sticker on the box...while this was going on I know someone was stalking MY dishes, they were just waiting to see if I would walk away, pacing and staring, not a chance! These bad boys were mine, all mine hahahaha...perhaps the evil laugh is what had her writing out that sticker so quickly...whatever...I came home with the box and am figuring out the most perfect spot to put them, I can't wait to use them...btw, others who live here may not be quite as excited...apparently there actually was a time when dishes were made that can not go in the dishwasher...oh well, I still love them and I know they love me!
There are times when you find a treasure, a perfect accessory and it's an unbelieveable deal! Or you are blessed in an unexpected incredible way...maybe there is an amazing item is just waiting for you in front of someone's house, coincidently on garbage day, you get it into your car & home, it's perfect! You love it! You need to tell someone..you need a high five, to do the dance of joy with you. I pick you!
