Dish 033
This is quite the fancy glass bowl. Don't be fooled by its
domestic allure, it hails from France. The register mark says
it is Duralex, which we've never seen before in our collection.
Since it's so rare, then it must be really fine. Stylish rings
rim the outside of the bowl, providing a classy appeal. We think
it contained that lime green jello salad.
You are correct. Dish 33 held the green jello
salad. You are also very good at point of origin. :-). We had
fun. Let's get together soon. -- CLAIMED, September 7, 2003 by

Dish 034
Damn, our disposable incomes must be collectively growing
because this one is NICE. N-I-C-E. Nice. The sheer presence of
this in the Gallery of Lost Dishes simply indicates the upward
mobility of the Barnes Place guest. Made in Mexico, microwave
and dishwasher safe, we suspect this square serving dish with
scallop-shaped rim hails from Zip Code 30308 because of the Pottery
Barn Logo on the bottom. Unless you can clearly identify this
one, you ain't gettin' it back.

Dish 035
Okay, so not everyone can live in Zip Code 30308. And sometimes,
you just have to go with utility. This one-liter casserole dish
is made in the USA by Anchor Hocking. It is oven and microwave
safe. Perfect for the smaller family unit. It is smoke in color.

Dish 036
Anyone who shops at Target has one of these. But this is good
old-fashioned Pyrex. The 2.8 liter casserole dish could feed
a pack of toddlers in no time flat. It is manufactured by Corningware,
and makes the presentation of a casserole stylish and sophisticated.

Dish 037
Another dish from the Pyrex family. This 3-liter glass backing
dish cannot go on the range and is not broiler safe. But we're
sure you could put it to use in many other ways. Made in the
U.S.A., this most likely had something with a cheese-meltdown
on top.
You know that belongs at the Hovel... drag
it over tomorrow, maybe? -- CLAIMED, September 8, 2003 by Dan

Dish 038
Technically not a dish, these two hand towels most likely
came with a hot-dish to most likely protect someone from burning
their hands. 100% combed cotton loops, these towels bare the
brand name of Royal Velvet by Fieldcrest. (I never travel without
my Royal Velvet.) The decorative fringe is tattered, and the
gray color late 80s. However, I'm sure it served its purpose.
