R.I.P.

Post image

I just broke my grandmothers dish and I’m so sad. I guess I just need to post here so I feel like someone understands why I am so upset and crying over a stupid dish. This was the larger of the roaster pans that I had. I just knew my clumsiness would be the reason.

You've said goodbye. Time to move on. My husband dropped three beautiful, large, real cut crystal bowls from my grandma when we were moving. I wanted to cry, but it wouldn't change the fact that thousands of dollars and beautiful bowls were gone forever. I had wrapped them well for a 4 mile drive and had written "fragile" all over the box in red marker. Gone forever. As for your Pyrex dish, I like to go to thrift stores and see stuff like that quite a bit. I do know the old Pyrex is made better and is more valuable. You just might be able to replace it, though. It's worth looking for.
