THE GOOD DISHES

As I witness an early generation of family members pass, my cousins and I were each faced with the emotional task of cleaning out the family home. Sorting through the heirlooms, we would determine which items to toss, sell, or preserve. Without fail, when it came to the family’s fine china, that item was always given to the person that most cherished its memory and sentimental value. Growing up in a large Italian family, everything was centered around food and the family table. I remember vividly my mother’s vintage marigold stoneware dishes that she bought at the grocery store back in the early 1970s. She used them every day for as long as I could remember, and they had a life of their own. Along with my mother’s everyday dishes, she had one set that she kept on display behind glass that only she handled, only she washed, and only she hand-dried; These were deemed “the good dishes.” Whenever I heard, “I need to use the good dishes,” that meant one of two things in our household: The priest was coming over for dinner, or it was a very special occasion. Either way, the food presentation, table dress, and table manners all changed whenever the good dishes came out.
