When I was a little girl, we had a pet monkey named Amanda. My Dad worked in the produce business, so each night he brought home that days culls in a big box - spotty cucumbers, pithy apples, limp celery, moldy oranges and the like. We called it a monkeybox. It was really just trash, but my Mom would take each piece of fruit and trim it, pare it and cut it up to make a beautiful fruit platter for Amanda. Even though it was deemed trash by one, it still had life left in it and was good for the purpose we needed it. That's how I live my life - thrifting, yard saling, looking for another's trash to be my treasure.

Perfect Corner
I think this is what every corner should look like every weekend, don't you?
Our roadsides are looking like that... just when you get closer, you realize that they are all local political campaign signs - and that is REALLY ANNOYING!!!! Bummer that they were all bombs!
I love my comments. I'd love to respond to everyone, but if you don't have an email address tied to your ID, please sign your name so I will know who you are! It makes it nice to know who is saying what. Now, leave a comment! Please? ;o)
All of 'em? Not even one? Sigh.

ReplyDeleteThat's so disappointing, the motherlode and then bust.
ReplyDeleteDid you have to breathe into a paper bag to keep from hyperventilating when you saw all of those signs??
ReplyDeleteToo bad they were all stinkers! That was my day yesterday!
