Who else ordered L&L yesterday?

I ordered the TSV in "clear".

I've had the 9x13 glass baker for a few months and it quickly became a household favorite. I've always liked Pyrex, but the L&L lid is so convenient. I know I'll get a lot of use of the ovals, especially over the holidays.

Who else ordered L&L yesterday?

I ordered it in the clear too. I also picked up the set of cereal containers in clear. Besides regular cereal, I use them to store oatmeal and other pourable dry foods.

@house_cat When you bake a cake in your 9 x 13 glass dish, do you have to butter and flour the dish beforehand? Thanks!

@Eileen in Virginia

I always grease and flour when I bake, no matter which baking dish I use... even Temptations and my "non-stick" cupcake/muffin trays. I don't believe the L&L glass has any stick-resistant features, so yes, I would surely grease and flour. When I make savory dishes, I always spray first.

I did not, @house_cat , but I liked the mauve and marigold colors very much.

I don't have the L&L bug (yet). I have a cupboard full of Temp-tations ramekins and bake ware. Have a good day.

I didn't get the TSV because I have plenty of TT and PW bakers. But I did order my second set of the four-piece tall canisters in royal purple and the four-piece nesting canisters in the sunset (?) coral color. I love these pantry storage sets--I haven't had nasty little critters in my dry goods since I started using the L&L products.

@Sweetbay magnolia

When I was getting married and setting up our first apartment, almost 40 years ago, that mauve color was all the rage. I guess it's coming back - I should've saved my stuff!

I didn’t order because of the shape.I like square or rectangle for baking casseroles and cakes etc.

@house_cat , I remember the "dusty rose" period. Some of it still exists in my "lived in" home.

@house_cat I preordered the sage and it arrived yesterday. I love it, nice dark green color and the 4 qt is larger than I expected. Have already washed it and the 4qt is going to be used for a lemon herb roasted chicken tonight. Tomorrow the small ones will be used for zucchini nut breads (have tons of zucchini!) Hope you enjoy yours

No, I passed on everything. After years of purging, I feel everything in my house is right sized to our needs, so I feel good with what is already here and am not easily tempted.

@house_cat Me! And I ordered the clear option too. Ever since I have discovered glass containers you can cook in with matching lids to store I have become such a fan plus what sold me is the largest one fits in that Oster toaster oven which is what I cook in.

I also ordered last week the Wolfgang Puck TS which was his SS bowls with lids and also a grater/slicer feature with a small helper handle. They are terrific too, I am very pleased with both purchases.

I didn't order the TSV as I didn't need those sizes. I recently had purchased two different sets of the L n L with the glass. Love them. I use the small round ones to freeze the "frozen fruit yogurt" I have been making in my Ninja Storm. At some point I will probably order another set in the glass. (Also, I collect the purple and wasn't sure if what they had in the TSV was really more blue. Mostly I didn't need those sizes right now.)

I did not but was tempted. I love the Lock 'n Lock products and have more than I need. My biggest concern is the glass. I have the 9x13" glass covered dish and recently found chip on edge. I do not know how it happened. (not worth returning) Wondering if anyone has had a problem with the glass bakeware. I know some people have had a problem with Pyrex but I never have. Pyrex has items with lids now too. I love L&L for pantry storage, leftovers, etc....use it all the time!

I ordered the wintergreen TSV. I only had one loaf pan so it will be nice to have 2 that are the same size. And i am looking forward to having a deep large casserole dish.

I have always preferred baking in glass.

Had a hard time deciding between the sage and wintergreen. So many great color choices.

Still considering the oval zip insulated carrier.

I have 1 set of the tall canisters in red - and I purchased another set several months ago.in winter green. These are my favorite L&L containers. I put lots of different types of bread in them and store in the freezer in my garage. In my kitchen pantry, I store cereal, rice, snacks (chips/pretzels/cookies), etc. Food stays fresh for a very long time - and no bugs!!!!

I have the 9x13 glass covered dish from L&L also. I love mine. I do not have any chips or other problems with the item as is but I do have a complaint-I wish it had handles of some sort. I made a baked pasta dish in mine and boy was it heavy. No handles to use made it iffy to come out of the oven. I was concerned it would slip thru the potholders on my hands. It's amazing how much help even a small lip helps when removing hot items from the oven. I have quite a collection of colored Pyrex from back in the day. I love that they all have handles even if they do not all have lids. Will continue using these although the temptation to purchase the new L&L was high! Hope all who ordered are pleased with their purchase!

mustang66lady.......good point! I understand what you mean. I will continue to use mine, carefully.

@walker

I have started putting my L&L 9x13 on a rimmed baking pan so it can more easily be removed from the oven and not spill the hot contents on myself or all over the oven and floor. Just a small design flaw in my eyes but one that could cause a lot of misery if lava hot ingredients tumble out of hands!

I ordered that bright purple/blue. I don't need them, but I am trying to get rid of plastic pieces and just have glass. And I like the oval shpe. Not only have they already shipped, but they are already in Phoenix, so I should get them on Tuesday.
