What To Do?


I'm surprised at how often I'm asked "What can I do with those big bowls of yours?"

Here's an idea -- a salad we just took to a party of 21 people...


And as the salad gets smaller, you get to see more of the bowl...

  2. Presentation is important....why would anyone want to serve such a beautiful salad in plastic. Your bowls are wonderful. Their warm color enhances the food.

  4. Sometimes I take seconds with minor flaws to pot-lucks with a note on the bottom that reads: "Keep the bowl, or if you don't need it, pass it on at your next pot-luck!"

    Rotini-rimmed bowl. I like it.

    I also like the "Pass it on" thing with seconds. Good idea.

    Thanks for the compliments, smartcat and Tracey!

    Hollis, some day I'm going to do a post on my most recent observations vis a vis making versatile vs. dedicated-use pots. Let's just say -- the short story is that after this year's observations, I'm shocked at my conclusion.
