CP and I just sailed through a garage sale up north of here. We left $120 behind for good measure, but came home with restaurant plates, cups, and bowls, plastic tumblers and bowls (just right for a birthday party), coffee cups, carafes, plastic and silver pitchers, salt and parmesan shakers, and silver and aluminum platters. Did I mention that there were 110 dinner plates in the set? Yeah....we'll have plenty for the first major friendsandfamily_leaveyour keysinthebowl_latenighter at our house...and we won't have to do dishes before breakfast..SCORE!
$120? you say, well it does seem like a lot for a garage sale, but I came home with a butt/car-load of matched sets of things that will serve us, and our friends (can you say loaner party set?) well for years.
CP was nice while her father piled stuff up. The seller is a fellow gardener and VW bus fan from down south of here; he'll be selling later this summer at the Spring Hill Farmers Market.
