Good, better, and best! Dinnerware.


I'll be the first to admit that as far as looks are concerned I am a bit hung up on appearances. Imagine my delight when my favorite retailer (hint:red and white bullseye logo) marked holiday dinnerware, manufactured by Gibson, down to $12.99 for a set of twelve. Imagine Gold rimmed dinnerware and stemware for your next get together. 12 Plates $12.99, 12 wine glasses $12.99, 12 soup bowls $12.99 -- you get the picture! I promise it is sure to impress, and as it is reusable Mother Nature and landfills will be sure to thank you.













Now add a bit of color, perhaps to match your paint, wallpaper, centerpiece, or add a bit of whimsy with a pattern. This set by Noritake "Crestwood Cobalt" has my signature staples - Blue and Gold - It's not just for Webelos.[Dear readers I apologize as this pattern has been discontinued as of 2006 - but many pieces are still available via web through Noritake.com, and Replacements.com] Although it also comes in Platinum which is available at fine retailers world wide, for those of you with a hint towards the reflective. Now, your thinking, how can we top that? Easy, remember designer labels elevate sneakers, sweaters, jeans, and yes tableware. Add a little greek drama courtesy of Versace's Medusa in blue (of course) and red. That's sure to keep everyone talking.
