<p>[QUOTE="Lfiduk, post: 259267, member: 4709"]I have! It was so much fun! I used my Homer Laughlin china plates that I got at an estate sale which is a very simple ivory with a wide dark gray band and used silver and crystal accents, i.e., the knife rests and other accent serving pieces. It was a casual Florida Christmas Eve dinner with friends (shorts, t-shirts and flip flops) but the dining table was elegant with prime rib. There were many questions about the knife rests and the guests were delighted in the new knowledge they gained. When one guest attempted a toast after one too many, another guest interrupted and proclaimed "I rest my knife" and all erupted in laughter! The toaster still doesn't understand to this day what transpired... It's one of those "had to be there " moments.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
