RX for Cabin Fever












Decided yesterday to visit one of my favorite haunts to relieve a little buyers angst, you know when you can't get out of the house, weather wise (too derned cold) ... these are some of the treasures I found. The two terriers in the wonderful old frame, just caught my eye, since I'm one of the crazies that loves the wild terrier. Another old photo of a man, I couldn't resist because of his hair-do. Can you imagine what it was like back in the day when a quick shower wasn't even in the vocabulary...especially in the winter. I don't know about you, but having long hair, I know why they wore buns at the nape of the neck...eeewwww...
I don't know why, but I just love pitchers with fruit on them, they just call to me, especially when you have a fruit theme going on in your kitchen. Then of course the wonderful white ironstone pot and it's in perfect condition. The little white ironstone soap dish is just precious with it's tiny olive green leaf pattern, how sweet. Then I grabbed an old white tablecloth, you never know when one of those will come in handy for a multitude of uses.


So all in all, the day went pretty well, so I scrambled home before the ice moved in...just in time!
