Great Bowl for Broccoli-Celery Salad

I love these Pyrex mixing bowls for salads. You can mix the salad, chill and serve right from this bowl. When you have finished your salad, this goes right into the dishwasher. The next day you can mix up a cake in it or use it for bread dough.

Our mothers and grandmothers loved their Pyrex, and it is still beloved today by cooks and collectors alike.
