SETTING A TABLE FOR GUESTS.

NOT ENOUGH DISHES?   No problem. Just plan to mix and match. Years ago I started buying single plates that I found in antique stores, or at garage and estate sales. My criteria was that the plates had to be priced under $10 and they had to have a pretty floral pattern in the center. Years later, I have a lot of fun setting the table for guests.  I can pick and choose among the plates by color, style or whatever else appeals.   Kevin calls it "playing house" and I can't say he's wrong!
