I think my mom has Fiesta mugs in all the colors.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Have you whacked yourself in the teeth with a square mug, Liese?
No, but I have poured coffee down my shirt by trying to drink from the flat side instead of a corner.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

See, that would be a problem for me. I don't need a steep learning curve on an item I've been successfully using my whole life. At this point in my life, I want to be profitably applying the things I've learned, not re-learning how to drink from a big-kids' cup.

Yeah. It's round for a reason.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I have never thought about square mugs, but there are so many ways they would go wrong for me.

Sue, those are great dishes. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions.
So I had my teeth cleaned today (on the fly, someone else had cancelled). I have gum pain. And two more cleanings to go through. My teeth are a mess.
I also have a new sonicare tooth brush. How long until I get used to it?
Oooh! Also had my eyes checked. My eyesight changed in my right eye, astigmatism is worse but the vision is better. Okay. But I'm getting new glasses with these frames: [link]

I like those glasses, Kat!

I'm way more picky about my silverware than my dishes/mugs. Our current dishes are from Bed, Bath, and Beyond - just a basic white set, nothing fancy. They have held up nicely. But I've been looking for a new set of silverware for ages. If I like the forks, I hate the spoons, if I like the tea spoon, I hate the soup spoon. I want 4 tines over 3. The knife has to have a certain heft to it. Picky, picky, picky.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I like my silverware, but the larger pieces do not fit in the little cutlery slots in my dishwasher, so I have to flap that bit back and put them in the open container all willy-nilly. It's cutlery chaos in there.
