The Pyrex drought is unreal. Or, is it imagined? Is my obsession finally...over? I do see some pieces in the thrifts, but they are ones I already have or have had or have no interest in having (phew). I've been thrifting slightly more in the last month+, and I see it out there: Pyrex I cannot justify. While totally pretty, I can't say I need it. I love my collection as is - and while there are certain pieces I would never turn down - I haven't had the pleasure of having to rescue anything in a very long time (I think it has been 1 solid year since I bought my last Pyrex). I moved recently, and part of me is...yowzas, I never want to pack/unpack anything ever again. Plus, it's hard to take a toddler down the most breakable aisle in a thrift shop. I don't know what else to collect right now, so I might start playing house and rearranging our new abode a bit better than it is now...Photos forthcoming.
I did get a little jacket for George at a thrift shop yesterday. For $2.50. I don't know why, but I am totally proud of this jacket I found. We have two trips in the works (Montana in September and Oregon in October), and I'm starting to put together a cold-weather wardrobe for my very, very Florida boy. I don't want to spend a ton of money on it, either...since we don't have much use for the long sleeves (yet). I haven't taken a picture of this jacket, but I will soon.

I totally understand where you're coming from! There is a MAJOR Pyrex drought here! The only way I am finding it is at antique stores and the prices everywhere are outrageous. It has slowed down my obsession...I still LOVE Pyrex but it made me take inventory of what I have and I realized how crazy it is to buy every piece I find. :)
