[QUOTE="yourturntoloveit, post: 314699, member: 57"]Am I the only one who thinks they are pretty dishes? I think the smaller dishes (salad plates) would make lovely "bon-bon" dishes (especially if the bon-bons were in colors of white, pink, pale yellow, and pale green). I'll tell you why I think so and it springs from one of my "quirks" as it were. I cannot stand to eat on china where the pattern covers the "food portion" of the plate. I really like only a decorated border/rim on china. Johnny, if you really cannot abide those dishes, whenever you carry a dish to a "potluck" or to an ailing neighbor or a death in a family then place a note [U]without[/U] your name on it on the back of the dish stating that there is no reason to return the dish. Or, perhaps, you could donate them to a church with a large ladies' guild/circle which might have many occasions to use them (or they could give them away as they send food to someone going through hard times, an illness, or a death in their family).[/QUOTE]
