Typo, I bet you can find it in a larger grocery store, and I know Whole Foods carries it. It's spooky how similar it tastes.
I've also found that a lot of recipes that call for chicken broth can be replaced with veggie broth. Obviously if you're going for a chicken taste, that won't work, but in a lot of recipes, the swap is easy (pot pie, for one).
I was checking for butter dishes (I really like butter dishes--I don't know what's up with that) on bedbathandbeyond.com, and I see that Fiesta Ware butter dishes are over $20. What's the deal with Fiesta Ware?
I'm watching
Iron Man.
I am
so
psyched for
The Avengers,
and not for the crazy reasons Dana is. OMG, Agent Coulson. OMG, alla y'all. Bring it on.
What's the deal with Fiesta Ware?
It's collectible. It's pretty, and useable, and the vintage folks like it because they made it in the 50s from the 30s to the 70s, and then stopped making it, and now it's come round again.
I've got a bunch of modern Fiesta ware that an online friend gave me, and I'd love to add to it, but yeah, it's not cheap, even the modern stuff. Love the colors, though.
It's collectible.
Somewhat ironically, I suppose, that really means sellable. The high point isn't the keeping part of the collecting--they're not collectibles without a resale value.
The colours are very pretty. But my platonic butter dish is nice and cheap. I don't need much more than this, but the thing is, I want five of them.
I don't get it, why do you need five butter dishes? They're not like plates or bowls, where you might actually be using more than one at a time...

This is me and carafes or pitchers. I would be a creepy hoarder given money, storage and opportunity. Mmmmm, glass containers for beverages.

I could have different butters...
But mostly I just really like their form and enjoy looking at them. Having my eyes slide from dish to dish is very pleasing.
Pitchers. Specifically, white cream pitchers.
My mom had a lot of high windows in her last house. So she collected colored glass jugs and pitchers. They were very pretty when the sun shined through them.
I'm up waiting for a technician to come check my internet. But it's zippy again, so I am wondering if they did something remotely. But they haven't let me know they aren't coming....
