This is a piece of Guardian Service cookware. This stuff was manufactured from the 30's to 1956. We believe Grandma and Grandpa Zucker got the set for their wedding in 1939. It has been used to cook what amounts to, I am sure, a staggering amount of food over the decades. And now it's mine. It probably hasn't been used for a number of years; Grandma was doing poorly for a little while before she passed on.
I boiled fingerling potatoes in it tonight. I tossed the potatoes in olive oil, rosemary and garlic and served them along with broiled scallops with lime butter and grilled asparagus with reduced balsamic goo and pecans. Lindz's home made ice cream was dessert. I hope Grandma would be pleased.

I believe Grandma would be pleased. Grandpa might look dubiously at the balsamic "schmear", however.
Grandma would be ecstatic that you've posted something, too.
I've got one of the smaller, triangular pots. I'm glad to see these can be used for more than boiling the vibrant green color of veggies to army green.
A joyous holiday season to all your blog readers!
