I found this box among my mother's kitchen things while emptying out their house. Isn't it cute? A meat thermometer-- the magic wand of a good cook! It made me laugh. But I guess if meat thermometers were a new thing when this came out, it would be pretty exciting. No more guessing if a roast was done-- just measure the temp. Think of the times they might have been carving meat only to realize that the center was raw. There had to have been a lot more guessing. I use a meat thermometer pretty often.

Vintage items have so much charm! I remember going through my grandmother's drawers and finding all sorts of neat tools. I think my favorite was an egg slicer.
I love them, too.
That's COOL!!
And check that price tag....
I'm always charmed by the packaging of "vintage" cooking tools. I remember cleaning out my parents' home and finding lots of cool things. Now packaging, if there is any, is more utilitarian. Older packaging had STYLE!
