...S & J

GOOD MORNING!

The sun is FINALLY shining in Central NY!

Temps in the 60's (today)!

Life is GOOD!

I forgot to post Our favorite 'find' from the night Rummage Sale last week...   The first thing that J spotted ((and grabbed)) were Two 24" wood letters.  They ONLY had two of them - or else we would have taken them all, but isn't it Ironic - and FUN, that the two they had were an 'S' and a 'J'?!!

I'm trying something different (ie: 'playing around') with my blog photos and layout, so bare with me... 

The last couple of weeks have been a plethora of sales - Estate & Rummage!  We have had some FUN FINDS and some FUN ROADTRIPS in the process.  Here are some of the 'goods':

An old metal dust pan
...just waiting to be given a little TLC.
I've been wanting one of these for a while!

LOST ANGEL BOWL - $6.95
Pretty good 'chance' find!  Check this final sale price!

CUTCO Knife Block ($1)

AMETHYST GumDrop Tree!

S&P 'Tree' -
BUTTERFLIES!!!!

Retro-Resin MUSHROOM!

MacKenzie CHILDS mug ($1)

and J's favorite 'quarter' find, a
"Hawaiian
Village" GOOD LUCK tiki glass/mug!

NIP #60 Serta Sheep

We were recently the recipients of our FIRST FreeCycle item:

... a white Cheapo-but-functional 6't x 2'w 'book case'!

and, enroute to pick it up, I garbage picked a similar size in 'wood tone'!!

Now, shelving is a 'hot commodity' - always the FIRST thing scarfed up at any sale!!  To get TWO - free for the taking and TLC, was a shear stroke of LUCK!!

The 'wood-grain' one is getting some paint and a sprucing - then headed to our new 'booth'.  The white one will be getting some paint, then I have plans for it at our house!  I will show photos as this materializes!

Hey, it's almost Friday...  and you know what that means!!!

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE

and

HAVE FUN!

...CROSS IT OFF 'THE LIST'!

Today was the 'unofficial start' of our Rt 90 Sale.  By my second stop, my trip was 'complete' and I could have gone home a HAPPY GIRL for a mere .50 cents (of course I DIDN'T)!

Yes, my long desired CUTCO 1025!  For those not familiar with CUTCO - they are Made in the USA (NY to be exact), used to be part of CASE KNIVES, high-end, lifetime guarantee.  From same geographic area as Corning Glass (Pyrex), Zippo Lighters, & Case Knives. I'm not enough of a cook / chef to warrant a set of CUTCO in my own kitchen.  The site of our annual Xmas Cookie Baking has a COMPLETE SET!  I always stake claim on the 1025, as it is PERFECT for cutting 'bar cookies'.

  Now, I have my VERY OWN $45 BAR COOKIE CUTTER (ha,ha)
