I was homesick for my Pyrex.

Only a few days into our vacation (a cross between deluxe camping and rustic cottaging) I realized how much my Pyrex had become part of my daily habits. Mixing, fixing, cooking, storing, serving, eating...I think I have the right Pyrex piece for every need.

Our mish mash collection of plastic and metal bowls and containers in the trailer drove me up the wall. Nothing stacked or nested, pieces were warped, there were bowls without lids and lids without bows. And did  you know its impossible to cover a plastic bowl with plastic wrap? And you can't put stainless steel in the microwave. My list of pet peeves was growing rapidly.


And I've come to the conclusion that I no longer like the feel of plastic. I don't like to cook with it or eat out of it  I've become a plastic snob!


I was so happy to come home to my Pyrex. And my pillow. And some Butterprint that came in the mail from my first Pyrex purchase on Ebay!

I wish I had more photos to share...my collection has grown over the summer! But my good camera is in the boat and the boat is in the garage and the garage is 4 hours away...

So here is a poorly lit shot of my entire Butterprint collection, plus some sentimental Pyrex and Corningware.
