I did it!
I ordered 8 place settings of Fiestaware kinda cheap from Amazon. Got a mix of half Cobalt and half Cinnabar.
Was only gonna order 4 settings, but then decided that I might like to have people over for dinner and NOT have to break out paper plates!
Whew, kind of scary! I can spend big $$ on a bike or bike stuff, but spending it on dishes makes me hyperventilate a little!
I feel so... domestic. So... commited.

I was going to recommend Fiestaware, but I see someone did and you have already ordered. The great thing about it is that it is never discontinued and you can always add to it or mix and match.
edited because I read to fast and you already said what colors you got."Chisel praise in stone; write criticism in sand."

I have it in Scarlet and Sunflower. Our favorite piece is the Jumbo Cup. We use them for soup bowls.

They are, but they are too huge for coffee to us. We like them for soup and cereal.

That cafe sounds absolutely grand! Saul's has more stuff I can eat, though. Maybe I need to open a cafe like that some day that's gluten-free. Only serve b'fast and lunch, simple limited menu. No waitstaff. Eat at the counter. Originally Posted by Trek420
