Every year, I visit my hometown for their annual Citywide Rummage Sale event. My sister Jill and I have gone for 19 years now. At this point, we don't really care if we find a thing. It's fun to poke around, see what people are selling, and sometimes see an old friend.
This year we had lunch at the A&W to celebrate my birthday (a few days before).
I found these neat cookbooks from the 1940s and 50s, all three for $1. I plan to try some of the recipes. An interesting note it that the word syrup used to be spelled with an i instead of the y (sirup).
I found a large box full of craft items for $10. There are so many things in the box it's ridiculous. I gave some of the kiddie items to my brother-in-law, who teaches kindergarten.
A recent gift from our friend Amy made us laugh, this Christmas rubber stamp. It will certainly be used!
That stamp is priceless!
ReplyDeleteOOOh, I made the photo list! :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd that cooky book looks oddly familiar to me. Not sure if it's my imagination or if I may have similar in the archives here.
Those are all great finds. XO
ReplyDeleteHow fun! I love A&W. And that stamp is adorable!
ReplyDeleteI bet the items you make out of those cookbooks will be top notch!
