the "good" china and silver - how can I get in the habit of using them?
Permalink Closed

I'm not sure if anyone else falls in this boat, but I was lucky enough to receive some beautiful china and silver for my wedding (Raynaud's Heloise china pattern and Towle Chippendale sterling aww).  I love them both, but can't seem to use them very often.  I've started cooking a nice Sunday dinner using them, but I'm beginning to feel a little wasteful with all this nice stuff that I don't use. So, I have a few china/silver questions:

1.  What are your patterns?

2.  When do you use it?

3.  How do you store it?

4.  Do you think it was a good present?

5.  Is your silver in the silver pattern zodiac?  smile (I'm a yankee, but my mother and grandmother had my pattern, and I think it's beautiful!)

Now, I'm going to eat my left over pad thai on the good stuff!

I use mine pretty much everytime I eat, unless we're eatign outside or just heatign soemthing in the microwave. I store mine in a china cabinet (on the display shelves) now, but before we had that, I just kept it in a cabinet in the kitchen.

I think its a great gift! We bought the china ourselves with money we received for our wedding, but the silver was probabaly one of our most appreciated gifts- especially sicne we use it al the time.

I have no clue what a pattern zodiac is. All I knwo is that I liek mine. lol
