Today while I was doing dishes, the skillet it was sitting in slid down in the sink a little, only a few inches, and it split right down the middle. It was obviously this pan's time to go, it barely tapped the inside of the skillet and was in two pieces.
I panicked. Really. I know it's just a pan. But it's a beloved pan.
To calm myself, I went online. Almost instantly. To try and order a replacement. I decided to order a pan in the brand I've been wanting to try for a while now. Le Creuset. I ordered a 9" one and am hoping the extra 17 square inches won't be a problem. What sold me was the extra 5" pan that comes with it. Bonus! And the lime green color, I've been on a green kick lately.
It will never truly replace my wonderful 8 X 8, but hopefully my life will go on.

I completely understand! I get to be the same way about some things...even when I can rationally tell myself that it is not a big, horrible problem to change. We can be such funny things, huh?
I hope the lime green one is great - it sure is cute!
I know exactly what you mean! I love that green color--that would make me want to bake!
I can totally relate! That brand is awesome, those pretty much last a lifetime. It is funny, some of my early Corelle and Pyrex are just starting to shatter 12 years later, I guess it is time.
I am sure you will learn to love your new green set!
At least pans stick around longer that the perfect shade of lipstick that they discontinue after less than 2 years.
I'm still in mourning over a JANE lipstick from high school and the Biore facial scrub from college.
I sympathize with your sadness over the breakage of your fave pan. Can you believe my mother-in-law gave me one of her mother's favorite glass pans. She used it "all the time" and took it to "church dinners and carry in suppers". I don't have any glass pans that don't have a chip or a knick in them. How do people keep their faves in tact?!
My MIL is totally like that about some of her Tupperware. I always feel terrible if it gets any sort of mark on it while in my care! Heaven forbid if I actually broke it- I can't imagine the wrath!
