This is my first Blue Monday and second Mellow Yellow Monday. I thought I didn't have anything blue or yellow, but once I found these, I started having a lot more ideas. Though, chosen for today are the pictured below items with hopes of impressing you all on this Blue and Yellow Monday!
I bought this special dish-set a few years ago. They are my favorite and best. They are made from Japan, and were pretty expensive "to me". I sprung to get these because...it was love at first site - and love at first site doesn’t happen to me often. They are durable and because of their sizes, they are functional. They work well with appetizers, entrées, or deserts. Believe it or not, most food display well on the blue background too! By far, the ones I use most are the little square dish and the little bowl
Most of all I like the way the bottom is made because it is unique. A little primitive looking but so finely finished. In general, most things from Japan are very well made and durable but expensive. Is it worth it? Absolutely! They are my timeless show-offs.
Thanks for your visit, I am glad you've found your way here. Please leave me a comment so that I can find my way to you.

@EbieIt's hard not to because they are one of the most elegant dish-sets yet so simple.
ReplyDelete@Kate @ Color for Your HomeThe yellow mango just pop out doesn't it?
ReplyDelete@Diane AZThey are unique, though since then, one of the larger serving plate broke because someone was very careless!
ReplyDelete@SparkleFarkleGreat way to describe it! They are my pride and joy.
ReplyDelete@TerryIt's the only treasure I have that is worth showing off. I think the rest of my dishware is very simple.
ReplyDelete@SquirrelQueenThe shape is wonderful, sometimes a bit awkward, but the size works very well.
ReplyDelete@mythoughtsmyvoiceThank you for the compliment on Trinity. She is my other timeless show-off
ReplyDelete@TerryI am craving for some now, wouldn't it be so delicious?
