Spring is Here, but the Weatherman Doesn't Know


Another estate sale got me up early and on my way this morning.  And look at my wonderful treasures!  First a cement Easter Bunny for my front porch.  When I get the frozen dirt out of his basket, I can fill it with eggs or pansies or both.  Isn't he happy and handsome?

Then these two pairs of matching bowls: two Blue Dot Pyrex and two Texas Ware splatter bowls.
They are all four in beautiful condition.  I was especially happy to find the unused vintage ticking ~ six yards plus a little.  This is my favorite fabric for my clothes pin bag linings and goes with the vintage tablecloths I use so nicely.

The back roads were very icy when I left home this morning.  I thought about turning back, but the thrill of the hunt kept me on track and luckily the main roads were clear.  I like to burn my Christmas tree in the beach fire pit at the spring equinox, but both the fire pit and the tree are buried in the snow.  And I don't dare take my Jeep out of 4WD yet.  Hey, weatherman, don't you know it's spring?
