Just some of the booty from the Wentzville Flea Market pillaging last Sunday. It's amazing what you can get for just $12! Status: A Week Old...But C'mon, This Stuff's Been Sittin' Around Forever Anyway!
I had to work 3rd shift last week and have been trying to get back to my 2nd shift sleep pattern all weekend so even though Momma Modtomic wanted us to get up and hit Wentzville this morning, I just couldn't do it. So I give you last weekends little bag o' goodies!
Yea! 'Memba this style? I've got a couple more pieces of this starburst pattern Glassbake
bakeware. I don't actively collect Pyrex or Glassbake but this pattern is so great that if I see it
cheap, it's comin' home wit' me!
I've got soooo much of this Salem Biscayne! I really need to go through it all, pick out what I
wanna keep (if any...for real!) and sell the rest. I'll probably keep a setting of four. It's hard to
let go of your babies and I don't want Empty Nest...er, China Cabinet....wait, no...Empty
Storage Box syndrome! But I just watched a video documentary about Star Wars fans and
some of them are AVID COLLECTORS, and I could see a little of myself in them....and it didn't
look good folks...not good at all. Not that I'm a Star Wars fanatic but I AM a Collector.
We picked up this amazingly colorful set of Melmac for the little lady. Aren't these just THE
colors of "mid century modern"? Bright Coral, Granite Black, Icicle White and Seafoam Blue! I
just sorta made those names up. They are in no way associated with the Branchell company of
St. Louis Mo.
