Charity shops ungreen for the weak-willed

Charity shops are very ungreen for the weak-willed like me.

If I had, for instance, only china I'd brought in a department store, I would have a day-to-day set and a set for guests plus a few bits and pieces.

Because I get my china for charity shops, where the china is affordable and if I go away and think about it it could be sold to someone else, I have lots of china. I have pretty, flowery china, earthenware pottery, blue and white china, green with white inside denby, plus lots of bits and pieces. And rather unbalanced sets as well.

I'm a single woman who doesn't entertain often!

My mother was up for a long weekend, so she ate off a different plate for every meal. We had raspberry soya dessert and home-made chocolate pudding out of little blue and white, which was definitely the first time I had used them!
