Happy Friday to all

 

Good morning! Drop the truck off in a bit to have the rear suspension replaced.

I must be excited. Normally the dogs wake me up at ~5-5:15 AM to go pee and eat. This morning I got up at 4:15 and they both stared at me like I was crazy, I had to drag them out of their beds. Priceless. It is the little things in life....

 

Good morning. It's Friday.

 

Good morning. Off to physical therapy in a bit. I still am sore from Tuesday’s battle.

 

Mornin’

 

G'morning all!! Happy Friday!!

 

Good Morning everyone

 

Good morning everybody. The weekend is upon us!

Thanks Walt!

 

We have the boring plain white paper plates right now. As far as the others, got the gold and blue



And we also have this masterpiece


the deluxe design lol

 

Morning all

 

Good Morning

 

...shoulda got the green, it tastes like lemon-lime...

 

Butterfly Gold and Old Town Blue! Both produced in the 70's to early 80's, pretty sure.

I'm a Blue Cornflower pattern guy it came out the year I was born 1958. My grandfather and most of my family worked at Corning Glass. For the 60th anniversary in 2018 they did a limited run and I picked up some more pieces.

If I could ever stumble on some of these pieces especially the percolator I'd jump on it



For everyday plates I use the classic café blue



Bought the Ex an expensive China set overseas at one point but she never used it and used stoneware instead. When she left the boys and I she took that garbage with her and left the good stuff behind.

My really good China I display on the wall in the living room

 

Fun fact = Rumor started on Facebook, you can't believe everything you read on Facebook. Snopes Please send me all those lead laden blue cornflower items you run across

 

Good afternoon gang. A dead server at the new job left everyone with no Vault access, so that meant no CAD work. The boss gave me 4 hrs of "training" time but then I had to leave early. I thought that it was a decent move on his behave, he could have told me to hit the road at 7am when I got there. I'm off to start the GMC and hopefully have no more leaks from the rear of the intake manifold.

Thanks for posting the pics of the plates from my childhood!

 

I have discovered Old Fashioned;

 

Done right, they can be very, very good.
