I work for the company that manufactures them and want to remind everyone that they are MADE IN THE USA! They also are restaurant-grade so don't be afraid to have them with kids. They also have a 5 year chip warranty and they are available in so many colors that they go with any decor. You can dress them up or dress them down. <br /><br />Hint for portion control: I use the smallest size oval platter or the luncheon size plate for meals so I put less on them.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10777651144458917550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-61287114063554873282009-07-14T06:55:49.923-05:002009-07-14T06:55:49.923-05:00That's a beautiful salad and bowl.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a more obvious design flaw - junk on the outside of one's body! Just SO wrong.<br />I tried the strawberry/chicken salad a couple of days ago and it was a hit! Very filling - I made it for friends who came over for dinner. I did use pecans instead of walnuts because walnuts make my mouth hurt, and I also bought poppy seed dressing, which is a little sweeter - I liked it, but either is good. One thing I like about the light basalmic vinegrette is that it isn't a 'diet food', it's just a dressing made a slightly different way, but it's still all food.<br />This salad looks good, too - I liked the idea of the dried blueberries.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09983236449210019827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-15831477736247806772009-07-13T10:03:01.789-05:002009-07-13T10:03:01.789-05:00Funny, we already had HUGE bowls for salads, cerea...Funny, we already had HUGE bowls for salads, cereal, pasta, etc. and had to buy smaller bowls to manage our portion sizes.

LOL <br /><br />I, too, recommend following the doctor's orders re exercise post surgery. Last thing you want to do is mess up your health by trying to do too much, too soon. Then it won't be a short, uneventful recovery. You'll have the rest of your life to exercise; an extra week or two, in the grand scheme of things, means nothing. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-77484654648097793332009-07-13T07:35:51.310-05:002009-07-13T07:35:51.310-05:00Pretty!
