I love yard saling…a few dollars in my pocket, sun and time to just browse. But, I do have to growl about those perpetual yard sales…you know the ones! Well, we followed a ‘new’ yard sale this morning, four miles out of our way, only to find it was the perpetual yard sale of garbage and the smell of mildew due to their never removing the items off the front lawn. I was not happy, and had a few [pirate] words to say.

But, first things first! Keith and I walked around our Bucksport Days Festival this afternoon and on the way home we bought a small ice cream cone with jimmies to share, so here is my Project 365 photo for today.

I have a thing about chocolate jimmies. Love ‘em, and love how they always make me think about my childhood and my Grampa. Grampa used to call the jimmies chocolate covered ants, and I remember laughing and telling him not to be so silly. Grampa would say, “I’m not the silly one, you are, because you’re the one eating chocolate covered ants!”

Wanna see a few of my yard sale goodies?

Love these small frames. 25cents each. I plan on priming and painting white and distressing them.

I paid $1.00 total for all in the above photo. I plan on turning the Girl Scout tin into a mini album for Toni…now to find all of her Girl Scout pictures!! Another mason jar for ephemera, biscuit cutters and measuring spoons. The little wire whisk is going to be perfect to add to a recipe mini album book.

A 17.5 inch tall ceramic tree…$1.00!! Ahuh, $1.00!! I am loving these ceramic tree’s, and now have three. Each different, vintage and beautiful!!

BLog Candy!! 

• Angie is celebrating with some wonderful goodies. Hurry ends at midnight tomorrow night!
• Boni is celebrating her sons birthday with a boxful of goodies. Ends Monday.
• Irna has a wonderful goodie package, and she has a gorgeous new line of stamps called, La La Land Crafts stamps. Ends Wednesday.

Well, I am rambling, and I need to think about supper so we can kick back the rest of the evening with a movie. Until tomorrow, I am hoping to have my {Simply Sunday} post, but no promises. I hope your day has been a beautiful, relaxing one!!
