I like the chicken.


so late yesterday after a long long day of dealing with doctors and my health I finally was in the mood to take pics of my last find at my diamond in the rough thrift store on the south side.

I did find a few great things, plates from pottery barn still in the box, more cross stitched linen, a beautiful flower pillow (that I still need to wash but will show you soon) and last but not least this wonderful milk glass chicken. This was the last thing I found when I was already on my way out. Don't know if I had missed it or that they had just brought this out, but out of the corner of my eye I saw it and my mom was so nice to buy it for me.

NO CHIPS in very good condition only a bit of the paint missing from it's little legs. My first white/milk glass chicken. No I am not into chickens but this one is beautiful. Even my mom loved it and I heard her tell my father she is so good at looking for these great finds. My mom is awesome to and I believe I have taught her what to look for. I could tell that she got in the frenzy when we were there but my dad really wanted to go and so did my youngest son.

We left as I did not want to prolong their torture, even though my dad loves the thrill of the find, as well, as he use to take us to the flea all the time when we were younger and he still goes on Saturdays. So with this I leave you. My boys wants french toast this morning so I gotta run and do that. see ya soon.
