Back to Normal

Wow, I haven't written a post since January! Not because I didn't want to but because work takes over my life this time of year. We had an exciting finish to our little golf Tournament here and I was thrilled to see Adam Scott of Australia don the Green Jacket. I am also just as thrilled that it is behind me and my life can return to normal (at least for the next 6 months).

After working long, long days for months I actually got to take a day off on Friday and of course I went junking. There was an estate sale just down the road but I didn't have much luck there, picked up a box of vintage costume patterns, some fabric and a shepherds hook.

On Saturday I met Mom at a Church Sale and had much better luck. You just can't beat the prices at these sales (I don't think I even spent $20). I found some old paper mache Easter eggs. They are marked "made in Western Germany" and "made in German Democratic Republic" which I would like to say makes them valuable but unfortunately that is not the case. If you ever come across one of these eggs and it is marked "German" that would be the valuable one. I still love these old candy containers and one of them has some pretty paper lace on the inside. I also found tons of linens that I didn't need but bought them anyway! I had a couple of bags full when I got home. Also picked up some old cook books, an adorable little vintage ice pick, FB Rogers sliver plate napkin rings, a nice brand new pair of garden gloves, some vintage cocktail napkins to add to my collection and some old sewing books and patterns.

On another note, we celebrated the Red Headed Girls Birthday on Saturday at Steed Dairy Farm and I thought I would share a couple of pictures of the cowgirls.

 

It's been a wonderful weekend, I hope yours has been as well!
