When Was The Last Time?

Tweet

Over the years, I manage to collect a lot of dishes. A lot of them were gifts. People started to notice lol and it made it really easy for them to shop for Christmas presents. With all of those dishes accumulating, I had no reason not to host family dinners. And what I didn't have enough of lol... went on my shopping list. I loved to haunt Good Will in search for interesting pieces and that lead to inviting the whole family to dinner. I even had a place setting or 12 in a nondescript shade of beige so that I could mix and match with the other colors that I had for particular holidays. I had pale green for summer dinners and pumpkin orange for fall. I was ready for any new additions to the family lol. As you can guess, it's been quite a while since i brought out any of those settings. But, I was just thinking, why wasn't I bringing them out just for my own family. Why was I storing them just for special occasions? So that is today's question... how often do you get out your fancy dishes for no particular reason? I'm actually thinking of getting out my green dishes and spending a little time thinking about what flowers I could pick for the garden to decorate the table. So, when was the last time you fancied up your dinner table for no reason? :)
