There's more to the story though...
...my 11yo daughter has caught my Pyrexia and asks me all the time, "did you find any Friendship???" So when I spotted this bowl (#443) I had to buy it, even though at $10 it was pushing the budget limit. Her favourite colour is orange. She was so excited! I told her that when she grows up and has a house of her own she can take every Friendship piece with her. Even though she swears she's going to live with me forever.
The whole set was there actually, but the other pattern and the 2 solids were in rough shape and not worth the $36 total. I only regret leaving them behind a tiny bit!
Love this! Your daughter has great taste- the Friendship pattern is my favorite. I would have definitely paid $10 for this. :)
ReplyDeleteIf I ever get to see a friendship in person, I would definitely pay $10! What wonderful memories for your daughter, too!
ReplyDeletei have friendship envy - i love it too, but have never seen one in person! but i want it bad...
ReplyDeleteHow great is that that your daughter has caught pyrexia?
ReplyDeleteI would have done the exact same thing. And I would happily fork out $10 for the bowl because I just never see Friendship pieces in Toronto.
ReplyDeleteGood score and cool daughter. Work it!

Friendship is one of my favorite patterns. I would have snapped that bowl up in a heartbeat. I think it's very cool that your daughter has been bitten by the Pyrex bug!
ReplyDeleteAmazing your daughter has passion for Pyrex and she has good taste with the friendship pattern. I thought I would share that when I decided to start collecting Pyrex this past spring it was this very bowl that I remembered from the kitchen of my youth and proabably the reason I love Friendship so much. I've got a couple of Friendship pieces but am yet to find this bowl. So happy you did and that you can share the fun with your daughter.
