Pyrex Sale!

Home is Where My Pyrex Is

The last four months of my life were completely consumed by a renovation and then a move into the newly renovated home. It's been a very exhausting experience, but also a true blessing layered with amazing learning opportunities.  Throughout that time I had 90% of my collection packed away and did my best to not continue adding more and more Pyrex to the pile of boxes (28 boxes :x). We've been settled in our new home for one week now and it's been wonderful. My Pyrex collection is out and ready to play.

I don't have most of it fully displayed because I've lost all of my plastic containers I used for stacking, but I'll aquire more in no time. I do have a new to me server that I couldn't resist jazzing up with my spring display.

The server is a family heirloom and I'm so lucky to have it. The side cabinets are amazing for storing divided dishes, which I've decided I have too many of. 

I'm thinking I'll give one away shortly through my Instagram account, @morepyrexplease. Stay tuned for more info on that. 

Now that the renovation and move are behind us, we have a cross country trip coming up where I hope to do more treasure hunting. I'm feeling so blessed and excited about life!

Soup, Chicken Noodle

Chicken Noodle soup has never really been my idea of a delicious meal. At least, not until I had an awesome homemade serving of it a few years ago. My mom, best friend, and myself road tripped down to Atlanta to spend a few days with my high school best friend, Ashley.  Let's take a minute to discuss how wonderful Ashley is. She's AMAZING.  She befriended me the day she started working with me at the dry cleaners. She is one of the funniest, sincere, and downright stylish woman I've met in my 28 years.  I can't get enough of her, especially now that she lives thousands of miles away. Well, Ashley got right to it after college and by the time we got down to see her, she was serving up a lovely dinner of homemade chicken noodle soup to us, her three boys, all under 3, and her husband. And let me tell you, that chicken noodle soup was a game changer. It was so simple, yet so tasty. I had never considered making homemade soup until that moment. Three years has gone by since that experience, and now I can't stop making soup at least once a week.

I've made this one a few times and I appreciate it because it's so simple. I used this recipe from food.com.  

I served it up in 441 cinderella Pyrex bowls because they are the perfect size, and the spout and handle make picking them up when the soup is steaming much more comfortable. 

There are only two of us for now, so we tend to have excessive leftovers from soup. I package a few in small mason jars to take for lunch and freeze the rest. 

Stay warm out there and snuggle up to a warm bowl of homemade soup soon!
