ellarienOatmeal baked up with flour and sugar and eggs and raisins, on the other hand, is perfectly edible.
On the gripping hand, the gorgeous new plates may have been designed for people with larger kitchens than mine. My dish cabinet is a foot deep and two feet wide, but it has double doors and a wide batten down the middle, so that the openings are 8.5" by 9.5" or thereabouts, and it turns out that rather deep, 11.25" diameter dinner plates will only go in three deep, and the third one is a tight squeeze. They can go in the other cabinet, which is a single-opening one, sixteen inches wide, but that means shuffling up the other stuff -- miscellaneous containers, placemats and coasters, a collection of candles and candle-holders, and a couple of goblets -- that lives in there. Also, the mugs are too wide to fit anywhere but the middle aisle of the dishwasher rack, and I have no idea where they are going to end up, though I should really retire a few of the oldest pre-existing ones.
They are gorgeous, though -- rich red crackle glaze on the inside and dark on the outside.
