Paper plates are your friend. Obviously, in todays BE GREEN frame of mind, this won’t be a daily gesture, but it is an easy way to communicate any number of ideas to your loved one. Pick up a package of the basic old fashioned white paper plates. Write notes, or decorate the BACKS of the plates. Be creative. Send a love letter, poems, song lyrics, compliments, make it a coupon. Or have it extend a romantic invitation… When placed out on a table, let them be the signal that you don’t want to be wasting time doing dishes, that you maybe have other plans for after the meal…
If the person being handed one of these plates is eating in a bed or wheelchair, or perhaps has some fine motor skill considerations, by all means, try to pick up a heavier brand plate, or even plastic ones.
