(I had to open with that picture because I'm so excited)
No, it turns out, I did not fall off the face of the earth. We had hardwood floors put in the ENTIRE house which turned into a whole ordeal. My pyrex was being stored like this:
No, it's not very safely put away but after I loaded up two giant storage boxes, I was in such a rush, and so tired, that it ended up on the dining room table and in laundry baskets. None of these things gave me any inclination to go thrifting or bring anything else into the house... but it's back away so I went thrifting with the rachiekins
I scored like never before! I even had to leave items behind (like a blue snowflake casserole, sigh) because I just don't have the money. I couldn't believe my luck when I found the pyrex shakers! I've only ever seen them on the internet! And the pink gooseberry?!? I just about died! diiiied!
Rachel seems to have much better pyrex luck. She scored me these awesome finds
I mean, promo christmas?!? come on! All I ever seem to find is butterfly gold and forest fancies. She also brought back the little JAJ (non-american pyrex) bowl all the way from England. She loves me lots.
Speaking of love, I, ladies and gentlemen, finished my first real quilt! Took me three days of solid quilting plus another 3 days for the rest of the sewing. But it's finally done and I am beyond proud of myself. I can't wait to give it to my little niece/nephew in December (yes, I really did think it would take me that long).
And related to love, this is my future husband (according to a 1930s arcade card)
Isn't he dreamy? I have more for christmas gifts for others
