Vintage Mixing Bowls


Well, had a few minutes to spare this afternoon and thought I'd talk about vintage mixing bowls. There are all kinds of mixing bowls out there. Some glass, some pottery, some plastic. I have come to realize that the older ones are the nicer ones. Because, they were made in the USA!!! Vintage though they may be, these are great pieces to use in your kitchen!!! So take a peek at some of the variety we have!!
Above is a set of Friendship Pottery Mixing Bowls Roseville OH in VERY GOOD condition!! These are so awesome, I wanted to keep them for myself!! But, alas, I have no room!! You can find this in our store, KornKountryTreasures!   


Next, you will see an awesome set of Vintage Pyrex Gooseberry Mixing/Casserole Bowls. These can be found at Gram-Recyle-Bin!! These are not just great for mixing but for casseroles and baking, too!! Great pieces and the whole set!!



RoundPrairie2 has a couple of things for you to see!! First, is this Pyrex Homestead Bowl Set. They need a little TLC but awesome!! Then they also have this awesome Blue Band Batter Bowl by Homer Laughlin??


Next, PiasRotty has this wonderful, old


And if that isn't enough, they also have this
How cool are these???



AngelOnTheWind has this Nice Set of Heavy Blue Mixing Bowls.
Such an awesome blue!!! Wow!!!!


And, last but not least, we (KornKountryTreasures) also have the Marcrest Dot & Daisy Large Mixing Bowl and in a separate listing, the Marcrest Dot & Daisy Medium Mixing Bowl!!

So, if you're looking for mixing bowls, check us out! These pieces are getting harder to find so they are well worth the money!! Why buy something imported when you can find good old USA made stuff that is better quality even if they are a few years old??

So, check us out!! Buy vintage!! Come on over to OLA.com!! You'll be glad that you did!!

Thank you for stopping in and please comment!! We appreciate your time!!

Thanksgiving is JUST 2 (two) Weeks Away!!!!

Can you believe it?  



How are YOU doing on your Thanksgiving Checklist?


Make your guest list.
Make your menu.
Order your turkey--especially if you want a fresh one. (Plan on 1 1/4 pounds per person.)
Measure your oven to make sure your turkey will fit.
Invite your guests. (Before you get on the phone, have a list of guests and a list of dishes. Then, if someone offers to bring a dish, accept the offer. And if they don't offer, ask them.)
Check your equipment:
- Table (one large enough for all your guests)
- Chairs for all of your guests 
Dishware:
- Dinner plates
- Dessert plates

- Coffee cups and saucers
Silverware:
- Polished forks, knives and spoons 
Glassware:
- Water glasses
- Clean wine glasses
Linens:
- Clean napkins
- Tablecloth (large enough to fit your table)
Cooking and serving items:
- Roasting pan: Is it the right size for your turkey? Will it fit into your oven? (Don't laugh: It's easier to buy the right pan today than it will be on Thanksgiving morning.)
- Big-enough bowls, pots and serving platters
- Trivets
- Bread basket
- Sauceboat
- Gravy pitcher
- Well-sharpened knives
- Coffeepot--Can yours make both regular and decaf for a crowd? Maybe you should get a thermos.
- Sugar bowl
- Cream pitcher
Make a seating chart.
Work on your shopping lists--don't forget tonic, seltzer and apple cider for the kids.
Begin cooking--relish will keep in the fridge for a week; gravy freezes well.)
Select a wine--Caterers recommend providing a half bottle for each guest--not counting children, of course.
Tidy up the house.
Put clean towels in the bathroom.
Make a final shopping list--Remember ice, cream for the coffee and nuts for nibbling in the living room.


OH!  I'm OUT of BREATH!

Well, you don't have to RUN around town, have a lot of your needed items come right to your door!
HOW????? you ask?
