Plum Delicious

I've been searching for plates for a while now... I hate the plates that I currently have.  I tried to sell them when we went for our "everything must go" sale, since we were moving back to NY...

Well, my favorite plates DID sell, ... my back up plates did not... which become our everyday plates... which I detest.  I didn't hate these plates while I used them as our "company plates."  But I hate them as my everyday plates.

So I've been on the look out for JUST the right set of plates...

These MIGHT be them!  They are from Crate & Barrel and are called Max Plum.
I'm not SOLD on the cups. I don't HATE them, but I don't LOVE them.  I do like the bowls.  Makes me wanna put some soba noodles in them and break out my chop sticks.  I also like how the sides of the plates curve up.  I like the white outside too with the vibrant color in the inside...

I'd like to see them in the flesh. I like to touch things before buying them.  We'll see!
