   I looked at today’s assignment and after reviewing, I feel that I have the right amount of crockery and glassware and am able to use most everything I have. Perhaps in the future, I will be able to part with some really old stuff, but like to use them for now.

   My group has defined crockery and glassware: Have garbage bag & line with newspaper.
   Crockery – tableware (eating and serving dishes) collectively
   Dishware
   Chinaware, china – dishware made of high quality porcelain
   Cup – a small open container usually used for drinking; usually has a handle; “he put the cup back in the saucer”; “the handle of the cup was missing”
   Dish – a piece of dishware normally used as a container for holding or serving food; “we gave them a set of dishes for a wedding present”
   Egg cup, eggcup – dishware consisting of a small cup for serving a boiled egg
   Ovenware – heat-resistant dishware in which food can be cooked as well as served
   Tableware – articles for use at the table (dishes and silverware and glassware)
   Glassware – an article of tableware made of glass
   Glasswork
   Crystal – glassware made of quartz
   Cut glass – glass decorated by cutting or grinding facets
   Glass – glassware collectively; “She collected old glass”
   Tableware – articles for use at the table (dishes and silverware and glassware)
   Venetian glass – fine glassware made near Venice
   Glass – a brittle transparent solid with irregular atomic structure
   Have a trash bag or sturdy box and line it with newspapers.
   Sort the items as follows:
   Trash: Chipped, Stained or items in poor condition.
   Mismatched glasses or cups can be used to place writing utensils; kitchen utensils, etc.
   Ugly promotional items = except magnets or if not usable for anything = trash.
   Special occasion dishware should be kept for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Family traditions are handed down from generation to generation/heirloom.
   Items too delicate or not your taste donate, give to someone who can use them or use as a gift.

   easy task, about 2 years ago got rid of all the mismatched & replaced crockery with all white items, easy to replace and no real worries about mismatched. Always throw at chipped items as I see them.

   Ooooo… toying with the idea of getting rid of the wine glasses we got for our wedding. Only I drink wine, so they never get used.
