Earlier this month I used a tension rod to fix a broken cabinet, and if you were wondering what was trapped in my Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, it was a pizza pan wedding gift. After I rescued it, I started wondering what other wedding gifts I still have 28 years later.
Pizza pan, painted metal, says “Pizza!” in the center
3 glass salad bowls
7 crystal glasses
A food processor
A tablecloth
Photo frame
2 glass cake plates
1 glass cake stand
Betty Crocker Cookbook
An electric carving knife
My rolling pin
And that’s it. (I already had china and silver from my dead aunt Delores, so I can’t count that as wedding gifts.) And what’s really sad is that I only remeber that Virgil gave me the picture frame and Diane gave me the cookbook. No idea where everything else came from, except Mom’s friends supplied me with the crystal, I’m pretty sure of that.
So, all future wedding gifts I give are going to be in cash, I think. Or a Betty Crocker cookbook. That held up pretty well.

The Silver Palate white cook book (as the White Album?) is also a good reliable book.
Becs – I think any new bride shoud get How to Cook Everything.
