To want to buy some grapefruit dishes?

[Manumission]

I can't find any anywhere. Except one secondhand crystal one on Amazon.

Have I gone a bit Fanny Craddock?

Should I be carefully measuring the diameter of sundae dishes and exemplar fruit instead?

M&S have got what I would call grapefruit bowls: www.marksandspencer.com/set-of-4-vintage-dessert-bowls/p/p22482920?extid=ps_gglpla_UK_Gen_,Home%20&%20Furniture%20_PLAHome%20&%20Furniture%20--%3E%20Dining%20--%3E%20Crockery%20--%3E%20Bowls_M&S%20Set%20of%204%20Vintage%20Dessert%20Bowls%20PASTEL%20MIX&s_kwcid=AL!2750!3!47119164976!!!g!67997744789!&device=m&s_kwcid=AL!2750!3!47119164976!!!g!!&ef_id=V-1I6QAABBvjWtCk:20161214214829:s&mcptredirect

I like those I wonder how odd I'd look taking a grapefruit from the food hall into home wares to check the size?

Yes YABU. Grapefruit is the work of thr devil!

YABU, OP.

Especially if you put half a glacé cherry on top of the halved grapefruit...

I'll have your ration doom. My poor unused grapefruit knives and grapefruit spoons have been sitting here for weeks in anticipation. I have lots of pent-up grapefruit cravings to satisfy

I'll also gladly take the Brussel sprouts allocation of anyone weird enough to dislike those.

Glacé cherries! Yes! 🍒

But do you have a grapefruit spoon? Only then can you genuinely attend Abigail's Party .

Ps why not? I'm willing to embrace all thongs 1970s, except coloured sanitary ware and bell bottoms.

Totally unreasonable, next you will be asking for a hostess trolley and a teasmade, although i agree on the Brussels sprouts, I just don't buy Brussels sprout dishes,,,,😂

Ah, I see this is a serious affliction.

Actually a teasmade sounds a very practical idea Not so sure about the trolley. Maybe a hatch?

It's getting that way imposter

You mean like these lovelies

Glacé cherries are for amateurs. The maraschino cherry is where it's at

Are they fruit-gripping protuberances trouble?!

Maraschinos were one of my pregnancy cravings. I might just eat a jar's worth while I continue dish-hunting.

Yes they are...and proper vintage. Used most days and just lush!

Maybe it is worth some patient ebaying. They are very pretty.

like these?

(wtf am I googling for grapefruit bowls for a stranger instead of the million and one things I SHOULD be doing?)

or these?

(still doing it)

I do actually. I' really like the Canadian Etsy ones. Thank you.

I don't know why I never remember Etsy. I'm such an untalented shopper.
