In The Beginning - Corning Ware 1st Generation BPE (Before P# Era - 1958-1959) Recipe

Be that as it may, I decided that I was going about this the wrong way. I should have been organizing my collection by Era and/or generations. You see, there are several "Generations" of Corning Ware and those generations can be grouped together…
