Deals, Steals and Daffodil Wheels

If you were wondering if spring will ever arrive, here is proof...

Of course, it is forced indoor proof, but proof nonetheless that spring will arrive soon!  

This is my first daffodil to bloom from THIS FORCING and the first of the forsythia branches to strut its stuff.  

Daffodils and Forsythia will be for sale this Saturday at the MARKET (3rd and G behind the record store) 

if you are in the Harrisburg area! (while supplies last)

The deals and steals?  

Well, all of this stuff is from the curb, 2 dressers, a desk and an old firewood holder...oh and a chair.  

They look like a pile of junk, but give me a week!

Don't mind the mess...spring cleaning still hasn't happened in the garage quite yet :)

They will get a little polish or maybe paint and some sanding and new hardware...simple little fixes a bit like these lovelies...

They were $4.50...a bit more than I usually spend, but I am LOVING those backs and the wood was in pretty good condition.  

I just polished them well and recovered the seat.

They are supposed to be for sale, but they are currently standing sentry by the dining room because I love them too much :)

Last but not least, I picked up this atlas for $1 on our date night. 

Yes, I restrained myself and only bought one thing at the thrift store.  

Perhaps it was because it was date night.  

Yes, we went to the thrift store on date night (he's nice isn't he??).  

Perhaps I only spent $1 because I knew the rest I could spend on skeeball at Chuck E Cheese.  

Yes, we went to Chuck E Cheese sans kiddos on date night.  

I won at basketball.  

He won at skeeball and baseball and football...but who's counting?
