Pyrex And Model A

These turquoise Pyrex bowls were a surprise find at a garage sale.  I have not found much Pyrex to add to my collection at garage sales.  As soon as I saw them I made a beeline for them luckily nobody got in the way.


I picked up this yellow piece of Pyrex at a secondhand store I'm guessing it's a loaf pan though it doesn't have handles and came lidless.


With father's day coming up I thought I would share this picture of my dad's 1928 Ford Model A that he had restored.  When he got it, it was a rusted wreck I used to tell him we should put a skeleton in it and put it out on Halloween.  This did not happen.  We lost my dad a while back around father's day he would love the fact that people are seeing the car he always wanted and got.  After the car sold I would see it once in a while by this time I could smile and think of good memories of my dad and his car. 
To all you father's happy father's day may it be a great day for you all.

  3. The person who left the first comment is right; the yellow dish is a refrigerator Pyrex dish. It originally had a clear glass lid and was used to store food in the refrigerator. It is not for baking -- I learned that the hard way by using my grandmother's old yellow dish to make a small casserole -- it broke when the hot dish touched the cold counter when I took it out. But your dish would be great for jello with plastic wrap on the top!

    Those turquoise bowls are fantastic!
