Confessions Of a Crabgrass Cowboy is a tale about coming of age in a fresh and eccentric environment called suburbia. As a personal memoir, the book details the vicissitudes of replacing playground bullies with "Playboy Playmates," while simultaneously preparing daily for the Armageddon we were promised was right around the corner.

Confessions Of a Crabgrass Cowboy also chronicles the cultural quirks of the era itself-Dick and Jane, CONELRAD, Charles Atlas, Tupperware(R), X-Ray spectacles, coon skin caps, and anatomically correct dolls are but a handful-that we now so closely and warmly associate with this distinctive period in American history.

Were Dick and Jane the only children in American without a surname? Did Battle Creek, Michigan really exist? Were the prodigious privates of John Dillinger really placed briefly on display at the world-renowned Smithsonian Institute? Were the lyrics of the Kingsmen's 1963 one-hit-wonder "Louie Louie" as obscenity-laced as many believed? What hapless sitcom blew the lid off the unspoken toilet taboo by exposing millions of viewers to the interior of an American bathroom for the first time?

So saddle up for a leisurely ride back in time and discover what all the fuss was really about.

Sturdy and useful
Good plates, we used them all and had no spills or plate disasters. We used them for hot and cold food. Sturdy and saves me time on dishes! I also appreciate that they look nice even if it isn't for company. Great for draining bacon with a paper towel. So much easier. Also, from my home schooling days, these are great for kids when they want to paint. Holds the paint and it is somewhere to lay your brushes.

Perfect smaller size, challenging to separate sometimes
We prefer to use the smaller paper bowls instead of the much larger ones, since they are more in tune with correct portion sizes. The size is perfect, the quality is fairly good, but docked one star because several times when wanting to get one bowl, it’s been a challenge to separate only one bowl. We would probably buy again, but these wouldn’t be our first choice.
