Table setting for lawyers - Oh My Buhay

Table Setting for Lawyers

We’re hosting a casual dinner on Thursday for seven of the country’s brightest lawyers plus three companions. My daughter said that we should just eat in our family dining area, however we don’t fit. That table can only sit 10 maximum medyo masikip pa.
I set up the plastic chairs and tables in the living room, so far the only place that could accommodate 12-14 people.

Another concern of mine was the cutlery. I don’t have a set for 13 px.

Since our guests are mga batikang abogado, I thought, a more dignified blue color would suit them best, rather than flowery pink. Aha, I have the perfect glass, the bluish with gold given by my daughter.

But I only have four pieces, not enough.

I need blue plates. I found a stack of wrapped plates. When I removed the bubble wrap, eto pala yung I bought last year from a small antique shop.
These are rare pieces. Each plate represents a month, January, February… to December. If one breaks, then the set is no longer complete.

For the month of August

Aha, I suddenly remembered buying some blue plates from Herend in Budapest.

It’s time to bring them out of the boxes. Kailan pa ba ito gagamitin? My husband said “Paghindi nakikita, nalilimutan. Pagnakatago, mawawala lang yan”.

I was in awe when I opened the wraps. Ganda pala nito.

I was aliw na aliw looking at this Herened blue and white porcelain dinner plate. It’s a little bigger than most plates. It looks better in actual.

To tell you honestly, I don’t remember how many pieces I bought, how much I paid for each, and what specific items I bought. My husband is right, pagnakatago, nalilimutan.

Salad plates can also be used as dessert plates.

This is the perfect set if the emperor is coming over for coffee.

Bummer, I only have 8 pieces of Herend dinner plates. I couldn’t find 5 more blue that would equal Herend’s grandness.

Pink flowers are not for lawyers.

Lawyers are known to be coffee drinkers. I must have ready cups and saucers.

Again, I don’t have a complete set for 12 px or more. I only have 4 pieces of this Haviland Limoges antique saucer. I’ll just mix and match.
