"very nice"

I'm guessing you are supposed to say it in your best Borat voice.

Those look like onion soup bowls -- definitely not an 'anytime' gift! :P

I think the quotation marks were intended for the 'gifts'.

Those are definitely french onion soup bowls! My mom had some in the '70s and I forgot about them until I saw that picture.

I love those bowls, actually. They're really good for soup, as someone else noted. They'd be an awesome "any time" gift for me. :D

My gramma has those soup bowls. LOL. They are a little bit cute.
