Haven't been in a couple of weeks. Today I'm looking for some more Corelle glass plates or dishes.

If you're looking to eat them, stay away from the printed pattern ones made prior to about 1970.

It is a wonder we are all still alive.
 
And I'm off - looking for pyrex and the corelle...
 
FWIW, I grew up in a Corning town - Big plant in Harrodsburg, KY...
