Guess | Chickens in the Road

Who knows what this is? Clue–it’s not a miniature bathtub for a dollhouse. I know, because when 52 gave this to me and made me guess, I was wrong.

I’ll be experimenting with its proper use today. I’ll report back!

*I put an egg next to it as a size reference. The egg is not related to its use.

My granny had a butter mold like this. I don’t know if that the official use for it but that’s what she always used it for.

A device for defrosting your icebox? Wait, I guess they don’t do that anymore. It might be what I use to hold the contents of my pockets each night. Lame. A butter dish needs a top. Hmm, OK, I give up.

I, too, was going to guess that it was a butter mold. Does 52 have some beef with your butter’s free-form style?

Well, since butter mold is clearly already spoken for, I’ll guess vintage asparagus or corn on the cob plate?

My eye is broken so I can’t tell how long it is. If it’s long, then I guess asparagus baker. If it’s short, I vote ice brick maker for igloos.

mini loaf pan or relish/pickle dish is my guess. I’d say butter mold too, but looks pretty plain for that??

Banana split dish? Cookie holder for Clover? My sewing scissors would fit perfectly in there.

I would say butter dish or a crock dish for cooking pot pie kind of things.

After reading all of the guesses and considering all of them, I would suggest a pickle or cracker dish, but I truly believe that it is a “whatever your mind wants it to be” dish! I KNOW that I am right on that guess! I am sure that my kids would think of some ingenious use for it…if it isn’t a dollhouse bathtub, how about a toy horse or cattle trough?

One guess from the oldest one is a mini loaf pan…not as ingenious as I had thought.
