It wasn't much of a selection this past week at the thrift shops but I did come away with a few things and left a few things behind too, like Pyrex Cinderella bowls - I'm trying not to buy the Cinderella bowls unless it's something really unique - I carried three Verde bowls around the store but put them back, it was such a good deal - $2 for the three but I came to my senses and knew I didn't need them and I thought the plain bowls might be hard to trade. There was also a Woodland 444 for sale - $2 - I left that behind too! I was excited to find this old Pyrex Ponderosa cup, I paid $4 - which is way more than I would usually pay for a cup but memories make you do funny things! This is just the way I remember "The Ponderosa" - sadly, no more in Canada... We tried one last year in Florida - it wasn't the same at all.....
It's not very often you find any pink Pyrex around these parts so even when they're not in the best of shape, well, I had to buy it, it doesn't look too bad far off but up close, not so great! Have you tried out the new photo editing site -
PicMonkey? I did some editing to the poor little fridgie - at least the Coffee Crisp eggs look good in there.... I paid $3 for that and this bag of buttons.
What do you think of the little minature tea pieces I found at the Salvation Army? They are all made in Japan and occupied Japan - there's three different patterns here, some have lids missing, but they were just too cute. Of course, they weren't marked - the lady turned them over numerous times, I thought she was going to say some high price - how about $2.50 she said - SOLD!
It's March 18 and this is the temperature today in Northeastern Ontario - for my US friends, that's 75 degrees, just not a temperature we have this time of the year, it's beautiful - I don't remember ever having a lawn chair out in March - I'm heading outside with my iPad to catch up on some blogs, maybe some
Flickr and see what's new on Pinterest - and I'll probably
pin!
It's that time of the week to link up to
Flea Market Finds again - I'm going to see what's new over there right now.... And, because it's Monday, it's time to link up with
