Fiestaware! http://www.homerlaughlin.com/ffd/shop.asp?P=SET&Q=A&T=
I wouldn't have thought of Fiestaware. I assume they took care of the little radioactivity issue... And if I order thru the "outlet" I can get a full set for less than $200. (my who-knows-what made in China was $19.95. But I have chipped and scratched and dunno what's leaching out of it.)
I love the stuff at Uwajimaya, maybe I should go check out some of the made in Japan instead of fixating on finding affordable made in USA.
Pfalzgraff was bought in 2005 and the holding company closed down the US factory. What a huge bummer, eh?
Oooh, that Louisville Stonewear is just gorgeous! (more expensive than I can do right now, but really lovely lovely dishes!)
Thanks for the Crate and Barrel tip. There is one in the mall, I might have to go take a look, especially if the restaurant supply place near me is a bust.
I got my bonus at work, and decided it's time to replace the dishes. That's why I'm on a tear over dishes right now. (spend the $$ on the dishes before I fritter it away on silly things like food and electricity bills
)
