Have you been in my cupboards! LOL I have a lot of the same bowls. I got the storage set for Yule and went right out and bought another. I also got a new set of mixing bowls with lids for Yule – and gave my old ones to my son. I inherited a lot of pyrex from my mom from backing dishes to measuring cups. I also bought the big 8 cup measuring cup many years ago and I use it all the time.
I have also replaced all of my plastic storage containers with either pyrex or canning jars. We hit the jackpot at the property – when tearing down the old house we found tons of canning jars! I use the plastic screw on lids (you can find them with most canning supplies) for regular storage and have also replaced my metal canning lids with Tattler lids. I love them because you can reuse them as long as the rubber gaskets are in good shape. I have read where folks have used them for years!

I just bought a small blue oblong Pyrex dish today! I figured it would make cooking bakes and casseroles for just me easier so I don’t have to deal with my big unwieldy dish. I also bought an EKCO porcelain clad baking dish. I really like vintage cookware and dishes. They are much prettier than new crap and, IMO, cook better.

I love Pyrex ware as well! My Mom has the SAME pink set I am looking for it. I have the set in rainbow colors, but, i broke the green one and apparently the red one got lost in a move years ago, I still have the biggest in blue and the second smallest in yellow – they get a work out. i have a lot of Pyrex baking dishes and pie plates and a three set of casseroles, will have to get the camera out, I just found the three some at a thrift store The woman had 7 on them and while I was simply looking at them she cut it in half! But I am also converting to glass storage. I have some glass hinged top cannisters that i thankfully bought two sets of from Brylane Home and love them. I am going to buy a box of large Mason jars to add to it. I have been saving good glass jars mostly from spaghetti sauce and plan to pain the lids all green, Then i will use my label maker And Rick found a great shelf a few years ago, that is only as deep as a large Mason jar. He had stored it in my Mom’s garage and I just rediscovered it, Painted white it will be great for these in my kitchen,
