They were enameled plates and cups.
Thanks everyone for all this, its very educational. My life was isolated from Guyanese culture for many decades with a Canadian family and I forget many of these things.
CARIBNY, our African store is operated by Denise from Ghana, I have to share a lot more about our Guyanese culture with her.
Django, Thanks. I could not remember the make of the plates and cups.
But I do remember hitting sheep and goats at the school water well, who try to get into our food dish, while washing and bits would fake off.
Based on what we eat, we owe our Afro Brothers and Sisters a big thank you. We are fortunate that we have we have Indo and Afro meals combined. No wonder dem Indian people at our temple love it when Indo Guyanese cook. Dem rass does fetch plate plate when Guyanese cook.
Me only like a few of their foods, I prefer my Guyanese food. My daughter cannot live without Guyanese food. She says, me don’t want white People food.
