Well it's probably better than what many other men do.

:-)

Many men collect things like beer/bar paraphernalia or car knick-knacks. Or one of many other things usually considered 'manly'. Yours is a bit different, true, but probably not all that odd for someone who is as deeply into the culinary arts as you.

Then, too, I know a few people who collect kilts...

Wade.

Is it enough to love
Is it enough to breathe
Somebody rip my heart out
And leave me here to bleed

Is it enough to die
Somebody save my life
I'd rather be Anything but Ordinary
Please

-- "Anything but Ordinary" by Avril Lavigne.

Actually, all the stuff in "Section-B" . . .

. . was purchased for use in photographs, though a few pieces are used for table service now and then.

The stuff in Section-A has been gathering for over 40 years. Stuff that didn't work out has been continuously purged so it's all pretty useful, though some pieces such as the footed ice cream bowls are used only occasionally.

You may notice a lack of full size American plates in Section-A. For my normal use I found some smaller deeper dishes I bought in Little Tokyo 30 years ago more practical. American size plates are good for serving slabs of cow or pig though, so when I get a hankering for some of that I grab a plate from the photo stack.
