How many of you remember the great Pyrex mom or grandma had in their fridge? I have read so many articles about the problems of storing and reheating food in plastic. So out with the plastic, but what to replace it with? Pyrex is the perfect vessel for those left overs and they go directly to the oven or microwave without any concerns. And don't they look good in the fridge.
But where to find them? I have been visiting the
thrift shops, the Goodwill and got some great items from my Mom. Thanks Mom!
There are some great websites all about Pyrex. Check out PyrexLove.com. It has all kinds of vintage Pyrex info I used it to locate pattern information and identified some of my own pieces.
This is Autumn Harvest circa 1982 not that old but very pretty. Keep in mind I graduated from high school in 1981.
The Verde is a two
section divided dish. What a pretty lid. Circa 1960's found this one at the Goodwill.
I found this whole set of mixing bowl at the Goodwill also. I think someone was cleaning out grandma's home at had no idea what they had. They are in great condition. Don't ever put your vintage Pyrex in the dishwasher. It will ruin the shiny finish.
More Pyrex later
