I'm always impressed by what you snag at these sales but I truly need nothing, but I'm always tempted to go and just look around. It's that time of year around here too and tons of sales were listed in the paper..maybe I'll just have to sneak a peak and go!yayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12047536332780197024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-2982882116617747232013-04-25T17:51:40.933-07:002013-04-25T17:51:40.933-07:00You found some great treasures on your hunt. I hav...You found some great treasures on your hunt. I have the same scissors and have used them for many years. I paid about $15 and that was 20 years ago. I prefer them over my expensive Gingher because of the soft ergonomic handles.<br />Gotta have a least one cast iron skillet. The only thing I use them for is baking corn bread. It makes for the best crispy crust when piping hot with a TB, of butter is melted while the pan preheats. I also use it for pineapple upside down cake every couple of years and can't imagine it being baked in anything else.<br />I collect cranberry transferware and that was a great deal for the lovely pitcher. Hard to find them in perfect condition.<br />Love it that you challenged the seller about the milkglass. She must have been shaken up by your facts because she basically gave it away.<br />The lamp is very much like one I inherited from my grandmother and the gives it an elegant touch.<br />Everything you found was wonderful and was when you consider you also got a full day of entertainment the price was right. I wish we had good sales up here. Usually just baby stuff and junk. I miss living in upstate NY where you could actually find real antiques. My favorite were the Barn Sales which usually had a bit of everything and priced to sell.<br />Thanks for sharing your fun & your treasures.Ellen in Oregonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03484004145095198712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-44777704339433603882013-04-25T06:47:03.342-07:002013-04-25T06:47:03.342-07:00Mona, looks like you had a great day shopping...I ...Mona, looks like you had a great day shopping...I can see why Maryalice tried talking you out of that beautiful Meakin pitcher! <br />My mother used to make pineapple upside down cake in her cast iron, too...care to share your recipe?<br />Have a great week...Marigenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00313503976938859618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-8025426917274777712013-04-25T06:36:01.862-07:002013-04-25T06:36:01.862-07:00Awww, Sweetpea,

Will Howard be adding a new room for all the treasures you bring home. I wish we had sales like this to go to - that's one of the things I miss about having lived in the city. I love all your treasures, especially the cat. Those eyes do draw you in. On top of your piano did you say - silly question - do you play the piano. I do not know how many people I have asked that question to when I saw a piano in their house, but they did not play - it was just for looks??? Tell me you play.LilliStJohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06771499579700164919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-80063979960728228012013-04-25T05:52:30.593-07:002013-04-25T05:52:30.593-07:00When you know, you know . . . fun treasures Mona!
