{February Happenings}

  Well our February Florida weather is cool in the mornings, warm during the day and cool at night. Which to be honest, suits me! But, we can't have perfect weather that suits us all can we? This weather has had me in the baking mode though. I saved a few apples from our mountain trip and baked an apple bundt cake to freeze for a Sunday dinner sweet.  Decided to whip up a batch of Kitty's shortbread spritz cookies. They weren't as pretty as hers but oh they would melt in your mouth. Be sure to pop over to see her recipe.  https://www.kittyskozykitchen.com/2025/01/impossibly-easy-ham-and-swiss-pie-and.html#more I had some left over deer venison and decided to make a Venison and Penne Casserole. Was a hit with Marty and his dad. But, we love all things venison around her neck of the woods.  One day I had some broccoli that was going to go bad if not used so whipped up a little comfort soup.

TUESDAY TOOTS and Bunny Hop Party

I am joining Bunny Jean at http://bunnyjeansdecorandmore.blogspot.com/ so we can hop around and see all the goodies posted. It has been Yard Sale Time for me. I love the yard sale season. Though I must admit I take it by spells. Some times I may stop at every yard sale listed in my county and other times I only visit a couple. Lately I have made off like a bandit with only stopping at a few! Now to see my loot.....

Isn't this beautiful? 


There wasn't any dinner plates but there was 4 salad plates, 4 dessert plate, 4 saucers and 4 cups.(All for $5) Not to shabby huh?


Adorable Little Rooster! 50 cents


Salt and pepper shakes for 50 cents


Ice bucket for $2. I just love this!(with the scoop)


Two cute little white bowls for 50 cents



Of course since I decided to do a beach tablescape I just had to have this. Especially for 25 cents.


4 clear cups with saucers for $2


I thought this to be an unusual platter.


Look at the design! SEA SHELLS!!!!! And it goes so well with my beach decor for $1.00


8 Christmas Glasses for 25 cents each....YEP, $2 for the set of 8.



What do you think about my cute little basket for $1?


I almost passes this by until I saw a little humming bird on it and decided I just had to have it. $1.00


And who can pass up a nice, heavy glass platter? Especially when it is $1.00? Of course my Husband asked me what I needed with another glass platter? I have a whole shelf of beautiful glass platters....but I really needed this one too! LOL!


And last but not least an old colander for 25 cents! Now hubby can quit borrowing my stainless steel nice colander when he cooks outside! He has his own!


Sure have enjoyed tootin on the loot! Think I done pretty good don't you?

Hugs and blessings, Cindy

  7. Makes me want to go yard saleing. Don't know where I would put anything, but always love the thrill of the hunt. You found some great buys. I used to collect Moss Rose china. That is a fantastic buy. The Christmas Goblets would go with my dishes. I love the old colander. Who can't use another glass platter? Looking forward to seeing your beach tablescape.

  14. Hi Cindy!

    You found a lot of great stuff this time! I would love to have found that shell platter and beachy candle. The platter looks kind of sandy... it will be nice for your beach tablescape.

  15. Wow, you certainly have cheap garage sales where you live, I can't beleive those fabulous prices! We hardly have any sales around here and they are so expensive-well I really mean it is just junk priced too high-LOL. Have you made any of the cake or cookie stands with the clear glass plates and platters and candle sticks? I made a ton on my blog, they are fabulous for giving cakes and cookies as a gift, who wouldn't like to get a nice cake plate filled with goodies? I am your newest follower.
