Archaic Things

Know something I just hate? The salad forks in my old everyday flatware. Now, I am using the same flatware I got as a wedding present in 1983. I could easily afford to buy more, but it seems so wasteful. Since I live alone the dishwasher is really more a dish sterilizer and only gets run about once a week. I just HATE going to get a fork and the only ones still clean are the short ones when I want a regular long table fork.

 
Just buy more forks.... there are companies with all the old patterns and you can buy ala cart!

 
Go to an "antique mall" kind of place and they will have bundle of forks packaged for you. ...

They don't have to match or be sterling. There are lots of groups of plate silver for sale inexpensively.
