I so feel guilty....

i went to this sale to pick up a patio set for daughter Angie as the wind caught hers and it fell over and shattered. anyway while i was there i spotted these bowls, it was make an offer which i HATE! at least if there's a price you can negotiate if you don't like it!

so i said 5.00? and she said sure! geez like i said i feel guilty...

Cindy and i went to some sales yesterday and i wanted to share these
with you. i bought them from a lil lady who had punched them herself many
years ago. well worth the 2.00 each she was asking, we had a nice visit and she
seemed happy that i would enjoy them!
