    Myn neighbor died a few monthes ago and he was about 89 years olds. They has an estate sale and I saw a mismatch beautiful china set. I wanted it because of the beauty but they sizes of the plates are way smaller then now. The estate lady was nice and brought me the plates for free. Now I eat in them they are so dainty.

    No wonder we are over weight our plates are so huge. and we feel the need to fill it up.
