Pyrex! Do you have any?

I am 66 and when I married many years ago Pyrex dishes were very popular. Well after 45 years I still have and use my Pyrex pieces. I love the different patterns and sizes they come in. The various shapes are attractive and useful for little leftovers to a casserole for a large group. Some things you never outgrow.

I am buying new pyrex bowls with lids, some are pretty, but none are like the vintage ones. Glass dishes are so much healthier than plastic for heating things and storing things. I have a few older pyrex pieces, and I exploded one when I was a newly wed the first time.

I still have many of them to, in fact even the ones in your picture. They are so great and from oven to table and still look good. They also clean very easily. I am 75 and still love them.

I do have several, and most were from my late mother's dishes.

@BelleStarr good morning to my lifelong friend. Wow the childhood ones are collectibles according to what the collectors of Pyrex are looking for. I did not realize they were in such demand. Enjoy your Monday!

I have a very old glass Pyrex bowl and a measuring cup. The measuring cup measures both cups and milliliters so I hope its paint never wears off.

Why don't you get a permanent marker and copy the measurements before they do wear off?

I love my Pyrex bowls, plates, and casserole dishes. I have some that belonged to a dear friend. I don't use them to cook with because I don't want to damage the design.

I remember back in my elementary Home Economics class, Pyrex is a home brand for baking wares.

I have part of a set of pyrex dishes that we still use. I do like my pyrex casseroles, they came in so many sizes, shapes and colours. And they last forever!

@YrNemo You are right but we can't put metals in the microwave.

@Ganma7 Can't buy the same stuff any more, unless we agree to pay lots to some ebay sellers. (I went out, buying some metal stuff, and everything has been fine since! One can't really chip metals! )
