For years I owned plain white dishes....BORING!  I decided to get new Fiesta Dinnerware and have only one set of any one color.  I currently have 7 place settings (more to follow) and in 7 different colors.  We just use whatever color comes up next.  This is so much fun. 

Pros: They are very heavy and sturdy.
Cons: They are very heavy. Sometimes this can be a bit of a problem.
