(...) You know, I don't think I've ever seen such a plate, but that's likely because I haven't seen waffle plates in general. What's worse (okay, start your cringing)...I throw them out when I get them--they're usually really grimey and in bad (...) (21 years ago, 1-Jul-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
