7 years ago, our family of 7 moved to a small home on the prairie. Our goals were lofty - to live frugally, become more self reliant, grow as much of our food as we could (sourcing the rest locally), and in general, learn to live in a more sustainable way. In an exciting twist of life events, we recently moved "home" to the coast and are adapting our lives and goals to a completely different climate and landscape. Join us as we continue on our journey!

New but Old
A morning glory tablecloth and 2 Japanese egg plates all thrifted for a song.
Pavers, thanks once again to Freecycle :) I've got pathways and brick ovens on the brain...
I have the same oval egg plate as well--mine also has the chicken shaped salt and pepper shakers that fit in the center. I *love* this set! Also, I will have to check out freecycle, your pavers are quite the find!
You are so lucky to get the pavers. I say, "brick oven" first! Love the Japanese egg plates..
ReplyDeleteI've never seen anything like those egg plates...what a beautiful colour! I love freecycle!!Well done!
ReplyDeleteI got a nice old nutcracker, a sheet for our bed, a large candle, toaster oven pans and 2 blueberry plants during my thrifting this weekend.
ReplyDeleteNICE, Becky :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm quite fond the egg plates - I imagine they will look smashing with our fresh (bright yellow) devilled eggs on them :)
