I love my dishes! They are Simple Lines by Corelle

We both wanted new dishes - he wanted something simple and I wanted square plates. We both love this pattern. :)

Also? I am cats & dogs but I chose dogs because Dexter is pretty much a full time job.

I've seen those in Kmart and thought they were so pretty! And it's Corelle, so you never lose pieces to breakage!

Yes! And since my old plates were stoneware (OMG what was I thinking when I bought these?!?) these are doubly awesome. :)

Is stoneware bad? Why is it bad?

[inkandchocolate.livejournal.com]

It's heavy and it chips if you look at it crossways. I was swayed by the pretty finish on my last set - they were lovely to look at when I opened the box, but by the end of the month every plate and bowl was chipped at the edges simply from everyday use. This has been my experience with three sets of stoneware and I will never stray from Corelle again!

And stoneware is really heavy which is nice in a serving platter or maybe a breakfast mug but if all the dishes were that, I'd have arms like Popeye just from loading/unloading the dishwasher.
