With Relish 1 May 2013 | 06:32 am
Jennie and Paul came to town to see Mitchell in Jesus Christ Superstar, but we managed to work in a boozy brunch, some estate sales and a little thrift shopping as well. No surprise, but there were p...
Trivial 29 Apr 2013 | 12:30 am
I do not know. Don't ask. I lost count. Alot.* You cannot have enough trivets. You cannot have enough expandable trivets. You cannot have enough silver-plated, faux-bamboo expandable trivets. P...

Don't Do It 17 Dec 2012 | 10:58 pm
Reader, sometimes you have to do as I say and not as I do. In the past, I've entreated you to follow your gut, buy what you find and take what the universe offers you. I did not do that. I was present...

With travel for work, hither and yon, I hadn't been to the thrift stores in Midland for a few weeks, so I thought this weekend was a great opportunity to see what might have appeared since I had last ...
