So I got this lovely set of dishes for Christmas the other day. They were at H.E.B., the local grocery store, but I thought they were nice, and I don't have any Christmas dishes, so I got them. What I didn't realize was, there are no cups in this set. Look at that on the box, because I did not notice it when I was buying them. It's a 12-piece set. Four dinner plates, four dessert plates, and four bowls. What? No cup and saucer? Not even a mug. Nothing to drink from. Yes, I know, there are goblets out there, and I have some, and there is crystal, and I love that as well. And Christmas is eggnog time, served from a punch bowl and cup (is punch bowl one word or two?) but I like tea, and I like to drink tea from a cup and saucer. Dang it! Now you know good and well, I will not take those dishes back, I will use them. But they should have some kind of a cup with them, shouldn't they? Yeesh!

Pretty set, but I agree, cups should come with it.
But, THIS way, you have to go shopping again...

Those are nice looking dishes, and you can find lots of red mugs. Christmas dishes are such fun.
I love the set but I'm with you on the cups, there should be pretty little tea cups and saucers!! lol!

It is such a pretty set, but I too would love a cuppa tea and can't do that, at least not with a matched cup. I'm sure you will enjoy them though. Glad you like my Thursday Thoughts and love that you used them. Have a lovely evening. Blessings.
