Porcelain evaporating dishes from China. The glazing of the interior carries over and down the top 1/2" of the outside, but the bottom of the outside is unglazed to sit over a burner flame. The idea is to boil off a liquid, leaving one with solid chemicals. Should work equally well with anything you want to heat in small quantities. All have pouring lips. The 250 ml dish is 4-7/8" x 1-3/4" high.

Slick because it is coated for a hard, fairly shiny finish. Slick because it has a self adhesive backing. Slick because it comes in 17" x 22" white sheets or 20" x 26" butter yellow sheets. What could be slicker?

Frame your sweetie in brilliant red or green diffraction grating on the 'fridge!! These thin flexible 2-3/4" x 5" rubberized magnetic sheets are cut out for framing a snapshot while holding it to a metal surface. The sheet is red or green diffraction grating with a "Happy Holidays and Happy New Year" message and an oval cut out (you may not get the oval insert but you will get both colors). We found we could erase the gold "...Holidays..." message with some dulling of the surface.
