Garage Sale Friday

Friday is garage sale day for me. My Mom, a good neighbor, and her granddaughter all went together. Boy, was it hot. Not only the heat, but the famous Texas humidity.

We made about 8 or 10 sales in all. I guess my best find was a huge zip-lock bag of vintage buttons and only $3.00. WAHOO!! Vintage sewing items are getting harder and harder to find. I am always on the look-out for vintage sewing patterns. My heart just breaks when someone tells me that they threw all of their old patterns away. Most people seem to think any pattern over 10 years old is vintage.

Of course, I did find a few little toys for my grandson(like he really needs any more). But what is a Granny to do!!

And I can always find a cookbook or two to add to my collection. And I did find two today. Not that I cook all that much, but I do love to read cookbooks.

I will probably get up early Saturday and go treasure hunting again. Most of the good stuff is gone in the first hour.
