Re: Pots or Not!

Butter dish for me. I have two but my favourite is a Hornsea pottery one. No jam, lemon curd or honey pot, husband is diabetic and I hate sweet preserves.

Re: Pots or Not!

I don't have a butter dish or a jam dish, but I do use bone china all the time, I also use a proper napkin, oh and fish knives and forks. Have never had a meal on a tray watching TV.

Re: Pots or Not!

I'm a No Pot girl nowadays.

I still have all the pretty pots & dishes for butter, preserves, honey etc tucked away somewhere but I rarely eat these things,so not worth getting them out. It's butter or spread straight from the pack & jam straight from the jar.

I have a bit of a thing about seeing crumbs on the butter, though, so always a clean knife to take out what I want in one go and I never put a buttery knife in the jam jar cos it encourages mould. I scoop out the jam with a clean spoon.

Have I redeemed myself?

Re: Pots or Not!

Butter in a butter dish but jams I try to get the squeezy variety so no one can get butter and crumbs in it, honey come like that now too.

What? Not even any cutlery?
But do you slurp? Or get a jammy mouth? I often do and have to use my serviette a lot.
