My husband had a set of flowered dishes by Corelle when we got married, and the pattern has been discontinued. (The pattern was rose and sea-foam green colored.) I would like to replace some of the dishes I have broken, and maybe add some more glasses and plates. Does anyone know where I can find discontinued Corelle? Any information would be greatly appreciated.


Answer
Hey Girl,

I would limit my searching to Garage Sales and Flea Market/Thrift Stores.

Corelle is not much of a collectors set (That's why they sell for less than $40 for a complete set, including cups). Also, since Corelle didn't come out until the 70's it won't have much value. No Value means not worth storing.

I do have a great idea though. Why not start your own tradition. Find a pattern of a similar dish (Corelle or other) and make up your own collection. Wouldn't it look nice to have a Dark Green solid color dish under those Sea-Foam salad plates, Or pick up a color from the flowers and use that color. Even a different pattern might look good with those (maybe a nice small checkered pattern, One color) that would go nice with the flowers in your set.

You have also proved Corelle wrong. Corelle was originally sold as the "Unbreakable" dishes. While they don't break when dropped right side up, just BUMP the edge and BOOM!

Good Searching!

I am moving to a new apartment complex this summer. Inspite of searcing for a south facing apartment alongwith other amentities, I was not able to get one.
The new apartment is facing North (and EAST to some extent). Is there a way I can get dish tv installed?
Is there any other way to get malayalam channels in Texas, US with help of some recievers ?
I am not sure if the apartment complex folks would allow putting the dish on rooftop or somewhere outside my apartment .



Answer
Federal Law requires them to allow you to put up a Satellite dish. They can't legally stop you. They can set guidelines where the dish go, so as not to be unsightly or lower the value of the property, as long as they have a clear view of the southern sky.

So ask them where your dish can be mounted and be prepared to run a long cable to it.
