Drinking glasses. It looks like it was supposed to be a set of eight – eight tall, eight short, but two of the shorts are missing so it's now service for six. The Goodwill here gets a lot of brand new things from retailers in our area. You never know when the trucks are going to come in or how the staff will stagger displays, retail the things brought in so I usually don't set out searching for anything specific when I go. Just lucky score. They're nothing fancy it looks like maybe Libbey Classic smoke, but I really like them for every day. I also found the best mugs. Not by the same company but a light gray sort of color that pairs well with the glasses. I think they were maybe supposed to be a set of six and if so one is missing.
Still they're very nice and when am I going to be having more people than I can fit in my living room over for coffee anyway. Now that my sons are grown, both have wives to keep happy and children to keep up with it just makes more sense to go to one or the other's place for large gatherings. My oldest has the bigger house, small yard. My youngest has the smaller house, big yard. So just depending on the season, where the weather is best that's where we are. Which is kind of nice. I clean up as if I were expecting company before I leave so when I come home from chaos and crazy it's just peace and quite, and cleanliness. And of course the ever calm, cool and always collected Monte the Magnificent.
