SEATTLE — When Sarah Hurt's marriage ended in 2020, she had a hodgepodge of dishes in her cupboard. Maybe three items left from the original set she and her ex-husband had registered for 20+ years prior, not even enough plates for her and her three kids to eat off.
"What do I want? And what do I think is going to happen around my table and on my plates?" she asked herself. "This is the wallpaper of our lives; we eat off these dishes every single day.
"I started thinking oh, man, I need plates," Hurt said during a recent phone call.
