Welcome to my very first ever post in my first ever blog!  I sincerely appreciate that you would take time from your ultra hectic, busy life (and whose isn't?) to read my prose.  One year ago, I was so overwhelmed by my life, I would never have had the time to write or the ability to sit in front of a computer for one more nanosecond.  But as someone I love (who happens to be my Mother-In-Law -  I know,  right?  How lucky am I??) always says, "Things always…

Hi!  I just went yesterday to the antique show in Round Top & Warrenton.   Awesome!  So much to see & not enough time to see it!  Great items for everyone!  We live close by to the show, so we are heading back again next week to see another part of the show.  It is huge!  If you go, dress very comfortable & cool!  Take Care!

My girlfriend is crying cause it snowed in St. Louis the other day.  So I just reminded her of the old proverb "Out like a Lion, In like a Lamb"

But I know Spring is here for a couple of reasons.

3. I went to my 1st Garage Sale!

It's just a matter of a few weeks and I'll be pulling out those shorts and flip flops…

HI,

Bright Retro Cheerful Anodized Colored Aluminum…..

I don’t think I’ve seen a piece I didn’t like. Retro kitchen kitsch that is delightful. It is bright, colorful, sturdy and just plain happy. It came in many shapes and sizes and colors. Quality manufacturers like Bascal, Kromex and others produced this retro kitchen…

At the request of some wonderful (and tolerant) friends I'm continuing a story about my daughter's engagement because 1- Romance is still alive 2- i love surprises; especially the antique, vintage or collectible kind.  :)

Seen below is a rather blurry and frustrating camera phone photo of my daughter's hand and the antique ring that her fiance' gifted her with on Valentine's Day when he proposed.   This little ring nearly burned a hole in JH's pocket from the moment he disembarked his…
