Perhaps that's why I love Spring Blossom. But I wasn't aware of the wonderful world of Pyrex until I spotted a small pink gooseberry bss at an estate sale for $1. That led me to the pyrexlove website, and I was hooked.Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08543718373960037936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6761058064933339220.post-36057466960445641162010-11-02T12:11:11.318-07:002010-11-02T12:11:11.318-07:00Fun post, Ana!

A gift from my mom and sister when I moved into my current apartment! So really I should be blaming them for my addiction...Alyssa Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16961731327170383575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6761058064933339220.post-12782252860399162442010-11-02T11:42:17.871-07:002010-11-02T11:42:17.871-07:00I think my first piece was a set of blue Snowflake...I think my first piece was a set of blue Snowflake casseroles I bought at a flea market with the sole intention of using them--which I did for about 10-15 years before even thinking of collecting any more.

I guess we had both mentioned how much we liked vintage Pyrex, so he took the initiative and bought the first piece!<br /><br />The best part is that only a couple of months ago did I even think to take the Bon Ami to it...and now the silver streaks are gone! :)Victory Garden Yarnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02686173448822170210noreply@blogger.com
