Lots of metal signs in kitchen, this one from my best friend for my daughter and boyfriend's

Christmas present...we all love coffee!

She has great taste! She puts things together in her own special way...

Last night she had me and Grandma Lucy over for dinner! The table's all set! Formica of course~

not vintage but very cool radio/record player

This Tiki sign is something I picked up for them at a thrift store this weekend! Valentines present! Brian and India have a lot of signs in their kitchen, and hoot owls

This was my chandelier, but it was perfect for their place! She is so cool! Don't know if it's hereditary? From her father, of course? More later! She didn't have it very bright in there, so I will go back in the daytime. My cheapo cheapo camera doesn't have a flash!

Thanks guys!

Wowie ~ Wowie Zowie! ... Frank Zappa

I was a little down when I left work yesterday, with all the ladies there seeming to get flowers delivered to their offices, etc.

 Imagine my delight walking onto my porch, when this package was sticking up out of the mailbox!
Cheetah Velour seriously made my day! I opened the package and saw the cutest apron, and a set of little forks!

Yeah! 

Also, my bloggin' sista Vintage Christine thought about her pals by sending out a Valentine. Thanks!

My two little Grandbabies sent these. They are their hands! Made into hearts! So cute!

My son Jeremy and his wife Sarah with the girls last St. Patty's Day!

Jeremy is a great Dad! They always take the time to do special things with the family.

All in all, Valentines Day ended on a happy note!

And now for something completely different!

All done! Much better, thanks 50's Atomic!

a fuzzy Betty Crocker..new old cookbook...very pink!

and now, for a peak at the thrift store finds of the day...

little burro table cloth.

a shade for my new lamp.

white metal step stool, only $8.00, soon to be painted red!

Two little egg cups.

a little lady salt and pepper, but one needs repair.

Not for the faint of heart! Open drawers diary!

A few days ago, 50's Atomic challenged us bloggers to reveal what's in our drawers. No, not the X rated version, but our drawers in the kitchen or bedroom, etc!At the time, I just could not get up the courage to show the world my weakness, stuffing things in closets, basements, drawers, etc..Heck, I just emptied my car of all the camping stuff my friend has been finding me today and put it out in the little trailer because it was warm here in the KC area. So...I got motivated. A little. OK, so, my top kitchen drawer keeps breaking and the front comes off. I decided to put the one that keeps falling apart lower in a place where I rarely need to open it, and switch contents, clean out and throw away.

This was underneath my kitchen towels. Cards that I had to have, and a variety of broken stuff, nails, whatever I needed to hide at the moment. Yuk!

Anyway, it gave me the opportunity to show the world my mess - and take the first step in what every problem needs to start solving it...admitting there is a problem!

I reorganized, and will show some after pix soon. Who know, today a drawer, tomorrow the closets, dare I say it, I may rule the world!

Slim pickin's at the thrift store...but choice stuff !

just what is needed! a new lamp. I couldn't pass it up, it was screaming at me

"buy me Buy me!!!"

Same tablecloth, just another view!

Another tablecolth which looks brand new! Thanks, neighbors
