It's a love story immortalized in one simple line "and the dish ran away with the spoon."
But why? They came from two different worlds - the dish, fine china, the spoon, flatware. They lived in two different households - the dish in the cupboard, the spoon the drawer. In the fair registry where we lay our settings, it was as unlikely a pairing as there ever was.
Or was it? As one wise fellow said, perhaps the dish recognized something familiar in the round curvature of the spoon and all she needed was an initial push down that slippery slope. That's why they ran off together. They couldn't help it. And in making that grand gesture, she risked it all for love. Oh what a dish!
So ladies if you're in the mood for love take a stroll down the aisle of
Bloomingdale's Registry. Who knows, there just may be a dish and a spoon that will run away with your heart!
