Day 2 - Dishes

I have way more dishes than I could possibly ever need for any one meal, so I have decided to pare those down as well. I still have more than I will use for any one meal, but I do have enough for two meals, plus one set of four place settings decorative dishes that are sentimental to me. The dishes I use on a daily basis are a set of red top, black bottom, square dishes (8 place settings) and a very simple set of dinner plates from the Dollar Tree. I have twelve of these. This may seem like a lot, but we have seven people in our family at this point in time. Technically speaking, I could get rid of the one set of 12 dishes, but that leaves us without dishes if more than one other person comes over for a meal and we host dinner often enough to make it worthwhile to have these dishes on hand as well.

I have a stack of dishes that I have cleared out, that are currently sitting on my front porch, waiting to be taken out to the van. I'll grab a picture of the stack (on top of the box that is filled) with the dishes to be gotten rid of and I'll share it with you.
