I took the gravy boat I found a couple weeks ago...
...and baked my favorite banana-chocolate chip muffin recipe in it?
And what if...
I baked some of it in a divided dish?
Still just as yummy, but so cute too!
I decreased the oven temp to 330 degrees instead of 350. The batch in the divided dish was done in 25 minutes. The gravy boats took 35 minutes.
After 10 minutes of cooling, they slid right out, easy-peasy. I just used a little cooking spray before they went in.
The gravy boat made just the right size little mini-loaf, perfect to share with a friend over coffee. By the way, that adorable embroidered tea towel is by Mom Wald!
I'm thinking the divided dish might make a cute egg-shaped Easter cake.

pleased to meet you
Hello there pymaniacs, I am honoured to take up my place as a new contributor and look forward to sharing my musings about the glassware I love with like minded folk.
I live in Oxfordshire, England where you can't venture very far without stumbling upon a well-stocked charity shop, brimming with goodies to be discovered. Since I was a teenager I've been picking up various little bits of mid century miscellany, but I'm fairly new to Pyrex, having picked up my very first baking dish last summer.
As you can see, my collection is very much in its infancy, but it is fair to say I have fallen well and truly head over heels in love with vintage Pyrex and there's no going back. I recently wrote about all the many reasons why adore it over on my own blog and I would love to hear all you reasons for loving it too.
My current favourite piece is this little gravy boat, which I bought recently for only
£1 ($1.61) - score!
and my latest addition is this egg shell blue butter dish, also a steal at
£1.50 ($2.42)
I can be quite fussy about the pieces I buy- I disregard anything adorned with fruit or chintzy little flowers (I'm all for granny chic, but there's definitely a limit).
Thank you again for having me- I'm now off to read some more about your super finds and to envy those of you with anything pink!

Pyrex in the Snow!
Yep I was able to dig up some Pyrex in Maine despite the snow storm....
Cool!
I'm off to the fleas and the sun is shinning! Have a great day :)
Zoom out
I was surprised to find a full set of Butterfly Gold Corelle dishes in our hotel room complete with a Pyrex cream and sugar and gravy boat.
Cool!
