River ,'Objects In Space'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I don't own a single plain white dish.
Really?
Really. I kind of hate them. ETA: All of my current plates are blue toile. Most of my glassware is cobalt (I also despise plain, clear glassware) and I have some cobalt glass bowls and some solid yellow bowls.
Currently my favorite mugs are the keep calm and carry on mug we bought on our UK trip, a tea in the garden bone china mug that a dear departed friend gave me, and a martini's aren't just for breakfast anymore mug.
It's your home, your kitchen, your table. Why shouldn't you have it the way you want it? I mean, would you tell someone who loves, Loves, LOVES Blue Willow Ware s/he was being a special delicate little flower for having what s/he loves and passing on Fiesta Ware? It's when you have to bring you own mug to someone else's home and cannot enjoy the charm of the mismatched Mom & Pop diner that you are a special delicate flower.

I am a special delicate flower who hates Tim's mismatched, chipped, bachelor plates. I admit it.
AND THE ELEPHANT.
t edit But it's not like he went to flea markets and antique malls and chose each one for its unique quirky awesometasticness. They're the plates he ended up with after the divorce and then supplemented with plates from Goodwill. All of which have gotten chipped and nasty after 10 years.
Someone out there would LOVE a giant blue elephant statue! In fact, I probably would, depending on what it looks like. You should sell it and use the proceeds to buy something else cool.
Not a printing press or other large machinery, though.

Sweet Italian Jesus, he is insisting on trying to print our invitations. Last night he sat down and figured out what the deadline would be for us to order invitations, so he knew how much time he had from now until then to try to print them.
He gets until Memorial Day.

Neither do we. We're color sluts.
And our coffee cups are all nerd badges with a Nillyvisit mug (with Pete illo.), Nightmare Before Xmas, Edna Mode, David Bowie, some pretty vintage poster art, etc.
My plates are of the "Hm, we're down to less than five, I wonder what's on sale at Target/WalMart or what looks decent at the thrift store?" pattern.
I really would like a new set of plates, but all the boxed place settings come with mugs. We definitely do not need more mugs.
We do have white ones(and were nerdily psyched when Ted from QE said they were the best showcase for food) But my most recent purchase like that was old-fashioned glasses with palm trees on them.
