rain, rain, go away..........

and yet another day of chilly , windy.and rainy weather.
Saturday I went to a couple yard sales and a moving sale. I bought a wood box full of old math cards and other little doo dads. I thought the cards may be great for altered art projects. I really wanted the box so getting things all together was a great deal. I also bought an old strainer with a wooden handle, a couple grapevine wreaths and a wood bushel basket. Oh, and I also picked up a couple more hostas. did I tell you that I love hostas??!!! lol
Anyways, I spent $12.00 on the entire lot.
We also went to the annual herb guild sale. I managed to get 2 lavender, 9 lemon balm, and
1 salvia( lady in red) for 5.00!
I was so excited!!
I almost forgot to tell you that I bought some broom corn seeds for 50 cents. not sure where I am going to plant them. I know I really loved finding it last year; it is so primitive looking and can be used in all kinds of fall decorations.

I will get some new pics on here soon.
dd#2 used the camera and guess, what?? dead batteries! ggrr..


today we cooked out despite the weather.
hot dogs, baked beans, deviled eggs and baked potato salad was on the menu.
