I don’t know why, but I have multiple dish sets. There is my Royal Doulton wedding china in the buffet. My cabinets house a set of white dishes, Villeroy & Boch, white and green trimmed Dansk dishes, and some colorful Chinese bowls for condiments. A couple of weeks ago, I found some large white bowls
