June 17, 2011 -- Yesteryear

When my mother and mother-in-law were each in their entertaining prime, they used punch sets like this one.
I discovered a nearly perfect set of 12 of dishes like the one shown here as we were "cleaning out" my "in-law's" house this past weekend.


I momentarily considered taking the set home. Fortunately clarity came forward in the form of my wife who asked, "what are we going to do with those, and where would we put them?"  She was on target of course, but I miss this kind of entertainment-ware. I think soon we will only see it in the Smithsonian Institute and other cultural museums.
