    I’m starting to party plan this week I’m thinking I might need to buy some nice new drinking glasses then I look in my cupboard and I discover I really don’t but they will need a nice wash.

      We don’t own any dishware in this house that can’t go in the dishwasher. Best decision we ever made.

      We were gifted a large amount of crystal glassware as engagement/wedding gifts.

      There’s an entire cupboard dedicated to it. They are used very, very rarely.

      Shit is overrated as hell.

        Yea my grandparents handed down a shitload of waterford crystal. Never used. Stuff is probably expensive but coffee mug for my goon is more practical.

        I think it was a status symbol thing back then. Absolutely pointless stuff.

          We have 4 crystal decanters.

          I’ve used two, so I can feel fancy.

          Sure they’re nice to look at, but pretty large and awkward to use and clean.

          They stay hidden

              They’re such a weird thing to have and yet many people do own them

            crystal decanters are the best vases for heavy orchid flower stems 👍

        Glasses are meant to be used. That’s my theory going in. I no longer care.

          I agree but we just don’t use them. Personally I don’t like them and the cupboard they’re in requires crouching to access.

          No thanks.

          So they stay hidden and pristine.
