I love shopping thru your eyes. We were going to go today, but plans changed, but will go next month if we can. I am looking for a couple of things for my family room re-do! xo Kathysue
Thanks for giving me my monthly dosage of eye candy. Loved the oval photo frames of the gal and would have been going through that box of ormolu. Liked the black chair with the dolphins. Did you get it? What was in those square cardboard boxes on the table?
I was there yesterday by myself. I must admit it's nicer to go alone, then you can keep your own pace. I just opened an ebay shop so I was just browsing to get a sense a what's selling and prices. But I managed to get an Arabia of Finland jam jar in perfect shape for $5!! Into the shop it goes. The last time I was there my friend bought me a pretty tray for $25. As it turns out it's a Metlox California pottery worth about $250. So, I guess there are still bargains to be had. Take care Terri, hope to see you soon. Mona
Beautiful goodies. I'd like to have some of that French ticking! I'm having some made into pillows for the shop now. Looks like you had a great time! Thanks for the tour! Barbara
Dear Terri, I so look forward to seeing your finds at the markets. Brimfield...how do you decide what to take home? Did you get the fab chair? I have a button story to tell you one day soon.
I said to Ernie on the way-I wonder if they could have gone to the Flea??? YEP! Good for you-how could you not. That chair! Did it go home with you? Thank you for your photos!

I found my bicycle! (my new old bicycle) The funny part is where I found it. Yesterday after finishing my post, " I'm longing for a new bicycle ," I was lamenting to my husband about how badly I wanted a bicycle of my own. He looked at me and said, " but you have a bicycle." (our vintage Colombia tandem beach cruiser) I said, "I know, I love the tandem but I would like my own bicycle." He said, "You do have your own bicycle... remember you bought one at a garage sale late last summer?" The light bulb went off and the memories came flooding back! All of a sudden I remembered the day I scored my awesome vintage bicycle at a garage sale on Briggs Avenue for $20! I ran to the backyard where it had been covered up with a large brown tarp for the winter. I squealed with delight at the sight of it! I remembered when I bought it it had several small American flags attached to the front basket from being ridden in the 4th of July...
There is something about single beds... (Image via domino) I would love to sleep in a bunk bed again... if just for one night. I can just imagine the conversations that would take place in these rooms! Summer memories are made here and here and here. Rooms with twin beds compel you to have a conversation before nodding off.

My one year bloggyversary! It's hard to believe I've been blogging for a year already. It honestly feels more like a few months. I know I've said it before but blogging has been a huge blessing in my life. It has opened up a portal into this wonderful place we all call "blogland" and has allowed me to find and connect with others who share similar interests and passions. My most precious treasures have always been the people and relationships I've made throughout my life and over the past year, because of blogging, I have hit the mother lode! I am forever grateful that I sat down one year ago today and tentatively and nervously wrote my very first post , bravely putting myself out in the blogosphere not knowing what lay ahead... a leap of faith that has forever changed my life for the better!
