Comments on: Adding Style and History to Your Kitchen With Pyrex http://www.astorybooklife.com/recipes/pyrex-bowls/ Creative Home and Garden Ideas From Our Cottage in The Woods Sun, 20 Jul 2008 00:37:40 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.4 by: Ketha http://www.astorybooklife.com/recipes/pyrex-bowls/#comment-27941 Fri, 15 Feb 2008 23:40:34 +0000 http://www.astorybooklife.com/recipes/pyrex-bowls/#comment-27941 Thank you for the history tidbit. My husband's stepmother gave us all of their old pyrex after we lost Dad a few years ago. Apparently, I'm the only one that enjoys cooking and baking. I just took a quick peek and out of the 7 bowls I have, only one mentions "microwave".. all the rest say "ovenware". When she gave the bowls to me, I wondered what I would do with all of them.. Believe me, they've come in handy, especially during the holidays...I'm going to be more observant when going to the thrift stores in the future.... Thank you for the history tidbit.

Look great displayed on my Hoosier cabinet. Stumbled across a round, golden globe pattern chip and dip set for $10! Would like to also find a square chip and dip set Have recently started collecting the Pyrex four bowl sets. Look great displayed on my Hoosier cabinet.

My husband and I are really getting into cooking these days and it was fun to learn the history behind our pyrex dishware. What a great history lesson.

It was originally a flavored vinegar & oil rack, but I painted the base black & use it for flowers - and seasonal decorating. Anita,

Looks like a bottle dryer that you are using for a vase? Is it for sale? Hi in the first photo what is the item next to the pyrex bowl. Looks like a bottle dryer that you are using for a vase?

It's great to hear that your bread actually does bake up higher when baked in Pyrex! I'm excited to try baking a roast in a piece of Pyrex ... when I can find one big enough for my big family!
