[quote=Anonymous]I have a full set of white china for every day, down to the after dinner cups and saucers. It all goes in the dishwasher except the serving pieces. After 10 years, we have only lost 1 bowl and 1 plate (the bowl I dropped, the plate shattered in the dishwasher in some freak accident). I have also have non-metallic formal "wedding china" but I only have the serving pieces, the dinner plates, and the salad plates. I use the salad plates for appetizers/salad/dessert. I didn't register for the soup bowls because we don't serve soup as a dinner course. All this is to say, I just registered for the pieces I would use/enjoy/love. I probably use my formal wedding china 3-4 times a year, mostly at holidays. It doesn't feel stuffy, I let all my kids including my 4 year old eat off of it. If a $170 plate breaks, so be it. There's no point to have (almost) anything that's too precious to use and enjoy. I agree most people don't register for this stuff anymore and I don't care what I eat off of at other peoples houses. If someone is gracious enough to host me, I'm just happy I'm not cooking![/quote]
