Yes I am still residing on earth...

I have just been slightly busier this weekend. I was sort of sad when I realized I would not have time to partake in Frock on Friday because I had plans to make pies with my Grandma. It was our (second annual pie bake) I asked her last year to teach me and we had alot of fun. So when I felt like pie again this summer I asked Grandma if she wanted to do it again and she did.

We made four pies. 2 apples, 1 pumpkin & 1 Rhubarb, strawberry & cherry.

See all those apples I sliced up?
And look at Grandmas orange pyrex bowl on the table.

Strawberry, Rhubarb & Cherry filling *mmm*

That's me forking the edge of the pie crust under the watchful eye of Grandma O.

I just got the apron I was wearing two days before. The ric rac is so cute!

Pies with only a few minutes left of baking.

See the closer front one? I cut out a M and a O on it for My name and my Grandmas. We called it the MO pie. I wonder if anyone else has ever baked a Mo pie?

On Saturday I did go garage saling. I found some stuff which I will share with you either tomorrow or Tuesday. I better do it quick before they find places to live. Normally I keep everything in a box after I buy it, so I can take pics right away. Then after the pics are taken I find a place for them to go.

Talk to you again soon!

Jewellery Polish & Pyrex Garage Grabs

Hello all! Here I am with this weeks garage sale finds. I was super excited to go this week as last week I did not go at all. Allergies that I never had in my life were bothering me. So instead of yard shopping I went to the clinic to find out if I needed anything. I didn't and got a pat on the shoulder from the Dr. When I left I was super mad!! Why? Cause I should have went saling! *hahaha*

Best find I presume is this Pyrex bowl. It is like MiNt!!

I looked it up to find out it is apparently a Holiday design bowl from 1961. I purchased it for $2

Vintage Children's books from 1975, 1962 & 1961 10 cents each!

I got this awhile ago but forgot to blog about it. A Lucite napkin holder! I love it!

Vintage baby crib sheet 50 cents

I loved this sheet when I found it. I then envisioned my future babies room being Circus themed. My husband was NOT HAPPY! He said NO! I do not want that.. I hate that idea! *lol* Trouble is.. My husband hates clowns.. might even be scared of them. *wink* I told him we don't need to have clowns in the room!!! But he still wasn't lookin too happy. So then I said well what about a carnival theme like Rides, cotton candy, popcorn and games.. he then said well that's a bit better.. But why can't we just have a normal room??

BECAUSE DEAR... I am always.. GO BIG OR GO HOME!

Flamingo stix! 50 cents for the package

O.P.I Full bottle $1.50

And now here we go with the Jewellery. One of the sales I went to had a metal box of misc jewellery. There was a sticker on the box that said 50 cents each. I grabbed $5 dollars worth and told the seller "I have $5 worth here will you take $4 for it?" She said: "sure!! I was going to mark it down anyhow!"

Funny thing is Months back I kept seeing the strawberry necklaces EVERYWHERE! I wanted one.. but was too cheap to pay the 10 - 15 dollars for one. I mean really it's plastic on a chain! Well see.. Good things happen to those who wait. I have 3 now for less than $1.50

I hope all of you had a great weekend! I will leave you with a picture from one of the kids books I bought.
