Hello - I just have to tell you that the photo with the McCall's Cookie cookbook made me gasp - my mom and I made so many cookies from that cookbook! Mom passed away several years ago, and I have no idea where that cookbook ended up. But I have so many good memories of paging through it and asking Mom which ones would be good to try.

Thanks so much for the wonderful memories this morning!

My thrifting has turned up, well, nada lately. I scored big a bit back with some amazing sheets, some of which recently became pants, but, of late, I just haven't found much. Really, it's just as well; saves me some money and keeps my studio a bit cleaner.

I love the mushroom dish! So wonderful. And vintage buttons are a great treasure. Looks like the swap was a great success.

I love your treasures! That swap sounds like so much fun...maybe I'll get in on one sometime...

I've been finding lots of wool sweaters lately, in unbelievably good condition; my favorite today, a boiled wool cardigan handmade in Norway for $3, and it fits perfectly!! I do believe I'll be wearing it daily this winter :-)
