Q. Laura Bush unveils a gold-rimmed set for the White House two weeks before leaving.
Answer
I would guess 4 to 8 years...
Just FYI "Children"... the China is being PAID for by the White House Historical Society (a non-profit, no-partisan group) and NOT the taxpayers.
It is a set for FORMAL State dinners... so it's service for roughly 50 to 250 guests. That breaks down to less than $2,000 a place setting. NOT Wal-Mart pricing, BUT some of you brides out there JUST got silent because YOU were eying place-settings not too far away a few years back.
It doesn't leave the White House... it remains there forever.
JUST FYI, Hillary ordered a $275 set when SHE was First Lady...

Kid friendly dinner party?
Gerty is i
Ok, I am having a dinner party for my sister, Dora, who is engaged. I am under major stress being pregnant and all, and feeding 8 people doesn't help. My four year old, Meg is going to be at the party, but it is an adult party (the sitter is busy) Is there any activities or fun foods that a toddler can do while a party is going on. Her friend Linny is going to be over. No one is available to watch them! I don't know how to keep her out of trouble while trying to celebrate1
Should I just let her be with us?
Are zoo-pals a good idea?
I also can't be running around a lot, due to my pregnancy
Answer
I would set up a kids table in a room that is separate from the adults but easy enough to listen out for/watch the kids. Cover the table with white butcher's paper or white craft paper and have plenty of stickers, crayons, etc on hand so the girls can make a "masterpiece". It would be easy and less messy if the girls had chicken tenders, baked fries, and carrot sticks or something like that for dinner. Make sure they get some dessert, too...especially for being good. They can decorate their own cookies or something like that. Sugar cookies, prebaked from the grocery bakery, and food safe markers (available near the cake decorating stuff) makes an easy, less messy dessert. Good luck!
