Corningware (same co?) still sells "Grab-Its" (with lids) which are
perfect for what you describe. *I haven't seen them in stores for a

While searching the Pyrex site for a pitcher, I noticed they have a
place to order replacement lids. I have a casserole dish that I've
lost the lid for and will go back to order one. I was on a tear to
find
a pitcher today so didn't dawdle there.....
(one pitcher and one mortar/pestle set ordered today... I ought to be
shopped out, huh?)
I like the pitcher. *I've got one of those water spouts in the kitchen
that pours out nothing but 190 degree water. *I love it but have had
things crack when I put the hot water in them. *I'd find out from the
manufacturer before I bought it. *My contractor is trying to talk me out
of putting in another spigot that shoots out that hot water. Not in this
lifetime. I'd rather get rid of the microwave than the hot water
dispenser. I use it for a LOT of stuff. *Iced tea is one of those things
.

I hope it isn't hot soft water - most homes with added water softener
equipment have only the kitchen cold water as regular tap water. I
never use already-hot water for cooking because of that.

My instant hot units have always been connected to the cold water line.
