My grandmother's plates

august 8 2007

My grandmother used to have plates with coloured rims.
I always took the one with the aqua rim, my gram the one with the pink rim, my uncle the yellow rim.

She ad them for years... well, to be honest, she had a large family and she had two piles of them. Huge piles.
She was ready for the occasional dishwashing disasters. LOL!

Last week I saw that one of the shops here had the same plates.
So I managed to get someone fetch them for me.

The same colour of aqua, the same pink and the same sunny summer bright yellow.

I now have my own dishwashing disaster system.
The plates are made from mepal, a firm plastic material that won't break as easily as the normal plates.

The kids love them.
And I love my memories.
