Thrift Haul - Happy Birthday to Me!

The thrifts were pretty darn nice to me this weekend.  Maybe it's good thrift karma, or maybe it's birthday luck. Whatever it is, I'll take it!  I was getting killed earlier in the week.  The Little Dude and I hit 8 shops and came out with nothing.  I was a little bent out of shape until I hit a  jackpot at my regular thrift.
I haven't seen good Pyrex at this particular thrift store in months!  And priced well too.  It had to have been my lucky day!

Most of it isn't super exciting, but the little red hostess is the first time I've seen that size. The two that I found here a few weeks ago are smaller.  Thankfully this one is in way better shape.  The Horizon Blue is in dang near perfect condition and was right on top of a lone Friendship lid.  It's not in the best condition with a few little scratches, but I took it to the booth anyway.  It will make someone happy eventually.

I thought the Flamingo Pink baking dish sold right after I took it to the booth because I left for a minute and went back and it was gone.  The lady must have changed her mind though because it didn't come up on my sold report. Oh well. The white pie plate is in great shape now that I scrubbed it like crazy with some BKF.











This mid century tray was the only non Pyrex item I brought home from the thrift.  It has one little chip in it, but I'm keeping it and I don't care!  It is now being used to hold the pool balls I found a little while ago.   All in one trip to a thrift where I haven't found anything good in a long time!  Hell yes, I'll take it!   All of the Pyrex goodies went to the booth.

Does any one know anything about this tray?  I'm not familiar with that makers mark.








The Little Dude and I walked (I walked, he rode) to a neighborhood yard sale Friday morning.  Most of it wasn't my thing, but I did end up with a few goodies.  I would have been wicked peeved had I walked up all those hills for nothing!  Shiney Brites, an indent and some knee huggers.  I'm always happy to find vintage Christmas stuff.







Last night The Husband let me open my birthday present early, and I'm so glad he did!

He bought me this  book without my even asking for it and I didn't even tell him it existed!  I'm still super stunned.   He's such a good guy, I think I'll keep him around for a while.  : )

Thanks for the thoughtful gift honey!!!

I'm thinking my birthday will be pretty chill today.   Hit a few thrifts, maybe go to dinner with The Little Brother.  I also have a twin brother who lives in Alaska, so birthdays without him are always a bit off because I miss him.  Happy Birthday Brother!!!

Also, I've been blogging for almost a full year and that means I'm going to do a anniversary give away!  I'll be announcing the details of that in the next week, so keep checking so you don't miss out!  

 I'm joining the parties at Apron Thrift Girl, Sir Thrift A Lot, Remnant, Mod Vintage Life, The Thrifty Groove, A Living Space, Ivy And Elephants and Joyful Treasure Hunting. Have a great week everyone!
