Pretty Glasses

There is a pretty set of stemware at almost every

auction and nobody wants them!  Well, nobody except

me and Ralph.  He's a true hoarder, telling me the other day

that he has boxes of stuff lining the walls and hallways

of his home.  His weakness is pretty dishes.  

I don't know why we are the only two that seem to 

like pretty stemware.  Maybe people just don't use them

any more?  Doesn't anyone set a pretty table with good

china and crystal at least once in a while?

I paid 50 cents for a set of 8 of these pretty things.

They make any drink look festive, don't you think?

I got these last month, and now I have two complete

sets of stemware.  More than enough, I think!

We can serve water and an additional drink at

each place setting, which I think is fun.

I have a weakness for pretty dishes, too, but

I use mine!  And since I don't need any more wine

glasses, I smiled and winked at Ralph when he bid

and got three more sets for $1 each.

I think he was expecting me to bid, too!

I wonder which hallway they will sit in. ha.
