Congrats!

I've gone through using just about every modern device known to make coffee going back to an enameled French drip pot. At the end of the day I go with my 18/8 stainless percolator. View attachment 138283

Pyrex used to make a glass one. It costs close to $300!!!! More than what you'd pay for a Regular coffee machine!!!!! Jesus!!!!

I'm doing sort of a trade-off thing. I'm taking my old cookware set (still looks new) over to a friend's house, since I cook there also & I'm getting a new Rachel Ray set in, you guessed it, orange, so that he has more cookware for cooking. I saw the new set & like it. So much so, that I also ordered the covered matching 3-qt Sautee Pan (pictured below. I've been buying things to bring there. He doesn't have much cookware, so he doesn't do much cooking. A woman visits him as well & she cooks for us both. So we like to make things that we think that he likes. He's somewhat incapacitated, so we try to help him out when we can. We are planning holiday meals there, & this helps to supply the things needed for that purpose.

I'm going to add another Made In Griddle to the mix. I've LOVED the first one, it's awesome to have a little mini flat-top in addition to the center griddle on the stove, so there's an area for cooking and an area for holding. I can set up 3 zones if really needed.

It also make a great diffuser.

I had one of those I bought from Etsy for $20 a million years ago. One day I inadvertently broke the stem part and the price for those was up to $320!

Stainless steel it was...

Oh oh, I gave away some Pyrex, I hope I didn’t give away $300.

I thought about getting a Made In cooware set, but I never got pass the thought. The price for one made me walk away. Too expensive!! Trust me, I don't buy cheap or raggedy cookware, but I DO rather stay somewhat in the middle, if that makes any sense at all. I mean, I wouldn't buy no-name stuff. I never bought RR cookware, but from what I heard, it's pretty good. I just have to use nylon untensils with it. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for, but in the case of Made In, you probably have to be working as a sous chef to be able to afford it. Stack-while-you- cook costs even more!!!!! I just wanted something simple & basic without costing too much. With proper care, it should last for a long time.

I finally checked the price of the Pyrex bowls I gave away, about $34-$40. I feel a bit better now.

You're trying to tempt me, but I won't do it. The Sautee Pan that I just ordered looks about that size- 3 qts. I DO have a small oval-shaped sauce pot that I can use with the new set It has orange handles on the pot & lid. I do have some of her bakeware in orange.

I'm sorry, but once you have Pyrex or Corelle, you don't get rid of it! That stuff costs a fortune to try to get it back! Number 1, because it's not in production now. When we were kids, it was plentiful & cheap. Especially the mixing bowls. Now, Visions cookware is getting to be the same. It was also made by Pyrex.
