Thrifting & 2nd Birthday!


Up above is the beautiful planter I bought from Goodwill last week for $2.52. Neat, huh?

December 22nd, 2011 marked the second birthday of Sir Thrift-A-Lot & I baked a cake with a little help from my bestie, Agnes to celebrate! This is the first cake in about 12 years that I made myself, so take it easy with any criticism.




An Etsy buy, this sheet of retro/vintage Nintendo stickers featuring Mario & Luigi. From 1989 made by Nintendo of American, INC. $3 shipped with some E.T. stickers I've yet to feature here.


Yet another beautiful bowl bought for me by my bestie in Cambridge, Ontario, which seems to be bountiful for many rarer pieces of Pyrex! A little over priced at $9.99, but great condition, this #444 Butterprint Cinderella bowl is a wonderful addition to my growing second set. THANKS AGNES!

  7. De tout, de rien - it certainly was. I made some cupcakes with Power Ranger paper cups with the extra mix. Passed those around for the celebration.

  9. Cap Creations - lol, thanks! I wish I had some more snowflake. I made cut up fruit for our family dinner & it would have been fabulous to have it in the snowflake Pyrex, but I used a Daisy & a Verde divided dish instead. Still looked great!
