Once in a Lifetime

While minding my business and hunting for Pyrex in a  Maine flea market....I saw this!

Yep 3 different sizes of  Terra casseroles! As you may or may not know, it is quite unusual to find them and in boxes...WOW AIE CARAMBA!


Pyrex produced a bowl set, a casserole set and a dish set in that pattern. In my humble opinion it was not a big commercial success...Since the paint is matte, it scratches very easily and looks dull.
The price was very reasonnable and I don't have any Terra casseroles, so I'm looking at the boxes and wondering which I should take....And I see that the largest one is still in the un-opened box....

WOW UN-OPENED BOX!!! WOW PYREX MINT-IN-UN-OPENED BOX!!!

Ok I'm getting it! Should I get it? OMG what is that??? A 50% off sign on all in that booth????

OMGOMGOMG THE PYREX CASSEROLE IN THE UN-OPENED BOX IS ONLY 4.00$!!!

GET ME TO THE CASH' GET ME A DEFFIBRILATOR , I'M HAVING A SEIZURE!!!


Ok I survived the flea market...and I was able to drag my ass back to the room....



 It's in my room still un-opened.

I'm getting curious....Will I open it? Will I wait?

I shook the box so I know it's not in pieces....

What would you do?

A Flea to Get LOST in!

n the way home from Kingston, Ont we decided to stop at a flea market we had recently heard about. Heck I don't even know its name!

All I can tell you is that it's in Morrisburg, Ont, it's held every Sunday from 8 to 4 and there's tons of interesting thingies!

It doesn't look like much from the outside but it is huge inside! There are different levels, at least 4! Since we arrived at 3pm and it closes at 4....We were running all over the place trying to see everything!


You know how I am with Pyrex! I couldn't help myself and I took some pics!



Yummy casseroles!


I still think about that cup...but i left it there it was too expensive! 15 $ for 1 cup!



Those were really pricey...sad face.

Those pics were all from the same booth! Is that crazy or what? There was a booth with just Depression glass and one with just Jadeite!!! Ever wonder where all the Jadeite went? ALL IN ONTARIO! LOL

We will go back for sure!
