Recipe site

I was fooling around on the computer last night and found this site for Vintage recipes. http://www.vintagerecipes.net/ There are some baked apple recipes that remind me of the ones my mother used to make. I'm definially going to make some. Isn't the internet a wonder? I'm always amazed how much you can find and how entertaining surfing the web can be. Some nights I'd rather do that, than watch TV.

Antique show goodies

The show here in Mohomet, IL. was very small in comparison to what we are used to in CA. But it was fun and as usual I found some cute things to bring in to the shop when I get home.

A little shopping

We got a chance to run off to a small town called Covington today. It's actually in Indiana, about an hour from where my daughter lives in Illinois. Really a cute town with about 6 antique stores. I found a few things that will be in the shop when I get back. All that little metal doll house furniture is so cute, and so are the little dolls. Those of you who shop in MY FRIENDS AND I often, know that "smalls" are my favorite things to buy. Hope to find some more fun stuff tomorrow when we go to the Antique Show in here town.

More shopping

My Other Favorite Store in Colorado Springs.
These are the nicest ladies. I really enjoy shopping there.
I found a few cute things to bring home to MY FRIENDS AND I,
but since I flew, I'm limited on what I can bring on the plane. Poo!

Colorado Springs shopping

This is one of my favorite places to shop in Colorado Springs. A lot of the booths remind me of MY FRIENDS AND I. That's my daughter and Granddaughter with me.

I always head for this dealers booth first.
CUTE stuff!
Because we flew here, I couldn't shop like I usually do. BUT I did find some things and when I dig them out of the car, I will take a picture.

Here are pictures of some of the other booths in the store. You can see from the pictures why I like it so much.
