How It All Began

I was visiting Inchmark recently, a blog I adore, and came across this little photo. Of course, I gasped. I don’t remember what issue of Martha Stewart Living it’s from, but I knew it instantly–it’s the photo that started my obsession with white dishes. Martha calls this impressive display in her Maine home “The Great Wall of China” (cute, huh?), and you can see why. My collection of white dishware is far less impressive, but I still love my stacks of white latte bowls and Fiestaware plates and odds and ends from thrift stores (my husband has put me on a lifetime restriction from buying ramekins–I’m obsessed). Anyway, finding this photo was like coming across an old treasure I’d lost in the attic years ago, and I had to post it here.
