Dish 024
These utilitarian forks appear to be members of the same family.
While trying desperately to be from Crate & Barrel or Pottery
Barn, they're more likely from Target. They are also really awkward
in your hand, but then, I'm left-handed so almost everything
is awkward in my hand.
The matte silver pan once contained a caprese
salad of fresh basil, tomatoes and mozzarella with a balsamic
vinaigrette. The forks, which were not from Target, but from
an old roomates leftovers, belong to the pan. -- CLAIMED, February

Dish 025
This is one hell of a nice baking pan. It looks too upscale
for a casserole, and too round for a cake pan. Notice the shadows
on the inside far wall of the pan - stretch marks from overuse?
This may become a permanent part of our collection if not claimed
soon.

Dish 026
This three-liter Corning Ware Casserole Dish has BRAILLE under
the handles so that you know it's Corning Ware as you take it
out of the oven while burning your fingertips. What brilliant
home economist took branding to a new level?
From a recipe handed down from generation
to generation (created, I believe, by distant relation Ghengis
Kahn's sister Chaka Kahn), "I Feel for You Pineapple Goo"
is a delicacy acclaimed worldwide. Simply scrumptuous! -- CLAIMED,

Dish 027
Hand-painted by children Sally Struthers is trying to save, these
salad serving tongs make a great team. One has a slit, to strain
dressing from your salad. The other is scooped like the hand
of a small child. The large, thick handles make it easy for a
small child to handle while he or she is serving you. The painted
fruit provide a visual aide to remind children it's the scooped
end that goes into the salad bowl.
I stopped by last evening to pick up the big
pyrex bowl and the SS salad servers (from Russia, I think - you're
right). Loved the photos and captions. No one home, so I'll stop
by later this week. Thanks again. -- CLAIMED, February 4, 2002

Dish 028
This Pyrex glass bowl has fabulous beveled edges. Classically
simple in its design, this piece is not made for the range top
or the broiler. Made in the U.S.A. To dressy for mixing and such,
this is definately a serving dish.
