My parents had a _whole set_ of dishes that we only used for special occasions, in addition to the dishes that we used every day. Probably not many of you can understand what that was like, so feel free to ask me questions about it. ---

I just thought something else that is interesting. When I was growing up, we had two colanders. When one was dirty, it was okay, because we could always use the other one. It’s because of this privilege that I’m where I am today. ---
