Auction find--need help identifying!


Hi friends! It's great to see everyone using their Pyrex for baking & cooking. I recently attended an auction hoping to find Pyrex but actually ended up with a box of miscellaneous kitchenware. In the bottom of the box was this one piece of Pyrex.

Would anyone out there know what it's use might be?? There is no other Pyrex in the box but I thought it either might be for scientific purposes or for some part of a coffee or tea pot...would love to find a solution to this mystery. Please help if you can!

Spice Of Life

Hi all, It's Leah from Storybook Ranch.

I can NOT get enough of these Pyrex *SPICE OF LIFE* canisters. Perfect for storing grains, seeds and dried beans,I will purchase every one I see (if they're dirt cheap, that is!)



It's not particularly a favorite pattern of mine; to be honest, I only like the pattern on the canisters.
The tall canisters are great for corralling small packages.



I currently have 6 in my collection. It used to be 7, until one broke. They make me feel all sorts of calm when I open up my food cupboards. It's as if I'm actually organized.

I wonder if Pyrex makes these in other patterns?

Pyrex Cookie Jar

Hi all! It's Leah from Storybook Ranch here to share my most recent Pyrex find:
a glass cookie jar, with fantabulously amazingly awesome gold wood grain etching...
I literally dug it out of a box at the Salvation Army warehouse & brought it home for a mere $1.00. I feel like I stole it.

The Missing Link

I ran across these Pyrex baby bottles in a thrift store, today. Thinking of this blog, I reached for my camera to secure photo documentation, only to find that I left it home.

So, I picked up 4 of the 8 on the shelf and brought them home to share with my fellow lovers of all things Pyrex. They are really fun to look at and handle and are in excellent condition. As she was cashing me out, the cashier took a good look at me and said "I always wondered who would buy these; they're the same bottles I used to feed my babies over 30 years ago."

Perhaps, some of us have been Pyrex lovers since birth? I can just picture it. Itty bitty pyrex collectors in training, running our tiny, infant fingers up & down the word PYREX as we were being nourished.
