Our conversation starter this week
do you like shopping at garage sales? Flea markets? what is a really good one? Do you shop at thrift stores?
Oh yes, I like looking at stuff! I especially love an estate sale in the house... so I can see the house too.
I remember a yard sale in CT in a historic area. We were out walking around, so I stopped and found the sweetest pink serving dish to buy.
I went to a crafter's sale, and Lordy she had everything one could ever want. I did love going through stuff and buying what I might like to use. That was in DC. I went to another crafter's sale here in Colorado and the whole house had her supplies in it. Yep, virtually a whole house craft room. Aaaaah
we have never made any money on our own yard sales, I feel like telling people, we JUST brought it out of our own house.... One person showed up asking what we would give her for free, at the start of the day. Wow. Our neighbor down the street, also doing a sale told me a woman bought a beloved doll she dithered over putting out, and on the way back to the car, tossed it to her dog that immediately began tearing it up. My neighbor was sad...
When we were doing a big purge before moving to Colorado, my friend and bee mate said sagely,
"first you get rid of the junk, and after a while it all looks like junk"
my fave flea market was in New Orleans French Quarter on Sundays

I think we used to call those helicopter trees. If you pull off those little winged seed pods and toss them into the air, they twirl down like a helicopter.
Have helped a friend clear a flat with a garage sale but clearing our own stuff we take it to carefully selected charity shops or if in doubt of its recyclability drop it at the Reuse Shop at the refuse station. Never want to be the perdon who sold that doll.
