#107 Getting away with putting three desserts on your plate

It’s time to fill your plate with two kinds of pie, Grandma’s homemade squares, a few scattered pieces of fruit, and a big swirl of whipped cream over everything.

Nobody will judge you on Thanksgiving.

Just make sure you use the big plate.

AWESOME!

        1. All kidding aside. Jdurley, if you are who I think you are :), it would be lovely to catch up with you over a pint, and purposeful too.

    1. I do that sometimes, when there’s a holiday in England or America, but not Canada. I use the excuse that it’s a holiday SOMEWHERE, so I may as well celebrate it. The only one who probably won’t believe me is my boss, though :(

  1. The main reason I love this is because those plates remind me of the carefree Thanksgivings we used to have. My mom had that set for years and I recently found a new, un-opened box in storage. AWESOME.

    1. My mom still has a lot of this set, and we do use it for Thanksgiving! The dinner plates are quite large!

        1. My grandma has some of these plates! I didn’t even notice until you mentioned it. That made my day :)

  2. I remember the first Thanksgiving my husband spent at my dad’s and stepmom’s house. She asked him if he wanted pecan pie or apple pie. He kept saying, “Yes” – meaning he wanted both. It took her awhile to figure it out. Now she just gives him one of every desert that’s being offered.

    Dani – my stepmom has those plates. They’ve lasted through many years and 4 kids. Awesome!

  3. It´s dessert, we deserve to have more when there is the chance. Me too, I have the same plates at home.

  4. Aww. This is even more awesome because we have that exact Corelle set! :D

    Hmm. In Trinidad three desserts is nothing! Especially holiday time!! :D

  5. I have these plates! My parents received the set as a wedding present in the late 70’s, and am using them now in my first apartment. I’ve never seen them anywhere else, so it was a really cool surprise to see them here!

  6. Seeing the plates you grew up with (and which you inherited when you moved out so you’re still using them as a grown-up) in a stranger’s picture on the internet– AWESOME!
