I just hope I don't break or chip it.
Lol

I managed to shatter a couple of Corelle dinner plates

I remember when my Mother went to a department store back in the 70s to buy a set, the guy dropped one on a piece of tile to demonstrate how they don't break lol

When I was in retailing back in the seventies, I ALSO
made the mistake of demonstrating the "Indestructibility"
of Corelle Ware by dropping a cup.......you know the rest !

Found 2 new plates today and an Anchor Hocking deep dish pie plate for making quiche.

Most of my plates in the cabinet are in orange, including some of the mugs!! Hah!!

I wish they were mine! While these are photos I personally took with my phone camera, the plates belong to a private museum at the Galle Dutch Fort. They belong to the Portuguese and Dutch colonial eras starting from 1505 AD. I took many more photos. You can see the VOC logo which was the Dutch East India Company. They controlled the seas, especially trade routes for centuries.

Not a plate, but I love these Pyrex Snapware containers.
I've two of them.
Something about storing food in glass I like.
Plus it's fun to pop the lid on and off lol

 

[Shermie]

Those bowls were or still are being sold without the lids as a set. I bought one some time ago.

You're talking about Pyrex glass bowls.
These come as sets with the lids for storage purposes.

Yes. I never knew that they now have their own lids!!

 

[Shermie]

The good thing is, that you CAN buy the lids for the bowls.

 

[Sass Muffin]

Yes. I never knew that they now have their own lids!!

A large dinner plate and a charger plate.
I'll find a use for the charger lol

I have some above the fridge in a little cupboard.
Those are going to the Goodwill next time I feel the need to rid space of stuff.
