1960/61 Promo Someone cleaned out their closets

Ugg It is 2013. A start of a new year. Meaning I feel the need to do a major over haul on my house and purge half my stuff. Then the rest of the year I fill it and purge the next year.  This sound familiar?

Well lucky me benefited from someone else feeling this way too.



Yes Salvation Army had this beauty today. Now I have it.

I scoured, searched and begged the Pyrex Gods to place one in my hands over the Christmas season. I thought for sure someone would give one up while putting out their decorations. Nope, they must have seen that had to much and sent this guy off to donation heaven.

I left a bunch of pyrex there. Some I had and some I didn't care for.  Nothing I don't see all the time (like Old Orchard bowls and Early American cinderellas)

I didn't post my Christmas gifts of Pyrex here but if you want to read about them you can find them at Treasures My Husband Hates.

Happy New year Fellow Pyrex Lovers!
