Good/Great Glassware--Dinnerware

18 years ago

Just curious......

Moved and it's still to get off the couple plates and cups I have.

Need to get dinnerware, glassware, everyday*glassware*.

Anyone from NYC.

Didn't see anything in Fish's Eddies.

Picked up some nice Asian serveware in C'Town.

Will probably end up going with some Aplico Porceing on the everyday ware with C&B glassware.

Love to hear you sets

I have set with a gray filigree design/silver rims in the dining room (think it's Whitney, but I'd have to look). They were the ones the bank was giving out free with a $25 deposit about 25 years ago--so they weren't expensive, but I've always liked the design, and enjoy using them.

Kitchen--still using the same Arcoroc dishes I got for a shower gift 34 years ago. Love them--they're clear glass, so are great to use if I need to add a few pieces to the 'good' set; they're microwave and dw safe, and virtually indestructible--have never broken one in 34 years of everyday use. And they still sell them at the bar supply, so I've been able to add a few extra pieces over the years (original set was only service for 4).

It's so cool isn't it...I love knowing that the kids we worked so hard to raise are making their own children now...I have seven grands, all boys and I have a friend that has 8 all boys and I am always patting myself on the back but a friend recently announced the arrival of her 17th...how cool is that... Congrats on your little one...

Nutbunch...you should see the seam I didn't post here...I had to fight to get it the right color, it still isn't the same height on both sides of it, from the edge you can really see the difference in thicknesses, and they cut the pieces too short so I have large gaps (filled with brown caulk or whatever) b/w the counters and the cabinets...and that's after I made them come back to make it look better! When they came back a third time to install the cooktop pieces...it was a completely different team...the head manager/supervisor came out with them and oversaw the entire process. I suspect it's b/c I made such a fuss over the sink counters that I got better workmanship this time...even the head guy admitted our sink counters were not the best. I would never recommend my granite fabricators to anyone! [I mentioned MIA and SFA to my fabricators and their response was that they were too strict in their guidelines...RED FLAG! (It was too late for me.)]

I am VERY happy with my 1 3/4 inch... but it is still really dry, for digging in the lawn... to get ride of Bermuda grass. I still have to stand on the digging fork, and rock it back and forth and side to side, to get it in the ground at all. The only places I can really dig, is where I have been watering. We need rain... but I guess, I should be happy, cause it was way more than 32 drops. Sorry Kim that you didn't get more. Moni
