  • Nope. I think it’s mostly a dead idea.

    My mom is still hoarding (for me) a set of fine china dishes I inherited from my grandmother. They’re really nice.

    But what am I going to do with them? Add specific furniture to my too-small home to store them so I can pull them out for certain dinner parties? We barely host for dinner anymore, and when we do, we keep it casual.

    I think china cabinets go along with a whole bunch of social niceties that were important in the 20th century and have since withered.
