The Why of it all

 

A few of you seemed surprised at our color choice. Above the background is the new paint on the front door. I used the phone to take the paint sample photos and when I laid them on the table, I notice the chair cushions and thought, of course these are what we chose.

the floral background are the cushions on our kitchen chairs.

they have all the colors of the paint we pondered.

there is not a room in the house that does not have burgundy in it except the two bathrooms,

The old door was Blue and the only thing in or on the house in blue.

the background on the dishes we have also have the same colors.

BTW

We have 6 of each of these. We eat off the same 2 plates every day.

The daily pattern is the one on your left.

I said to a blog friend, I doubt Bob would even notice if I served his meal on different plate.

I put his food on the other pattern, and he said nothing.

while I was washing the dishes, I said did you notice you plate was different?

He said "we have other plates?"

He also said, I might have noticed if you used paper plates!

Seems we are stuck in a rut, but neither of us cares because we like our rut.

Maybe I will buy two solid plates. These were bought in 1990.

Bet two new plates would cost more than 2 sets of 6 each in the 90's
