~STUFF AND STRAWBERRIES..~

Saturday was garage sale day...I wasn't exactly up to par but we went for a short time then the heat set in...so off to breakfast. Nice..but I was glad to go home.
There is always next week...

So...first garage sale:
I couldn't believe she sold all four of these precious little mugs for $1.50!! But...she did and I was right there to assist her in getting rid of them.

These two Fall garlands, two large goards and a bundle of lovely Fall ribbon were all for just $1.00!
Everything is like new. I'll just add it to my collection of "Fall stuff" and I know I will find a good use for it. (Fall... :) the very thought makes me smile!)

Now these are something for the BBQ. Didn't mean a lot to me..but they certainly excited Sweet Husband! Both for $.50! Good?

Did I show you these...I think I did. Found them at Goodwill for $4.00. The basket is of bark.
One of those things that when I tire of it...it will be returned to Goodwill with joy. I thought it very Summer and Springtime.


Sweet husband brought these home yesterday! I was delighted. Costco does offer wonderful fresh fruit and veggies.

Howards late night snack! Do you suppose this was what he was dreaming of when he bought them? And...he knows it is only the beginning...bless his little heart!


I do love my sugar container. No spoon needed...


For me, a dollap of strawberry jam. (I REALLY needed that!) :)



Much love and lotsa hugs,
Mona

  5. You made out like a bandit at the garage sales again. I have one of those little wire baskets for the grill. They are great for grilling veggies. So easy to toss them around in it.

    The strawberries are making me crave fruit! Yum!

  11. Those strawberries look just like the ruby beauties Chris just brought home from Sam's. Those BIG guys must have a conduit to the really good stuff.

    I always enjoy your jaunts on Saturdays, whether you haul home a wagonful or not.

    Come join us on the patio for some of those berries for breakfast tomorrow---four of the GRANDS will be here, and the sugar shaker may just wear out!
