Fun Stuff

Yesterday I was summoned by a friend to come with her to her recently-died mother's house to go through stuff.

On the way I see this truck in front of me:

                                         Alas, the photo I snapped isn't good. 

                     What's there are two anthropomorphic trash cans 'trash talkin'

I could not stop laughing.   

=====================================================================

Once I got to where I was going - Ardmore, PA - I hit two thrift stores on the main drag, i.e. Lancaster Avenue.

The Junior League Thrift Shop, 25 W. Lancaster Avenue: Nothing for me there, unless I was in the market for some overpriced secondhand Lululemon attire.

Penny-Wise Thrift Shop, 57 W. Lancaster Avenue: This is a good thrift shop (really more of a consignment shop, though).  Years ago we found my husband a tuxedo there, which a) fit him perfectly, b) cost only $40, and c) was what he wore for our wedding.

Yesterday they had a SUPER cool wooden table with six chairs.  

Here's part of what the chairs looked like:

The table is round, and 5' or so in diameter.  The table and chairs look to be in excellent condition.

Priced at $2,700.

I'd be ALL OVER IT, if I had the room for it, but it would be a pain to get rid of our current kitchen tables (Yes, tables plural.  We have two adjoining kitchen tables, because my husband is insane), and I'd also have to pay a mover.

If you're interested, you run there.  I'm guessing that's gonna sell pretty quickly.
