Monday I had the opportunity to go junking with my favorite junking buddy. We hit all of our favorite places and I am soooo happy with the things I came home with.
This precious cookbook had a copyright date of 1955 and has some great recipes in it. It even has a little history on different holidays and a bunch of 100 calorie portioned snacks. It only cost me $2!
I couldn't pass the apron up. It is worn on the red piping and is losing its color down the middle. I imagine it is from the many times a sweet lady wiped her hands clean to grab something or even dried a tear or two. I paid $5.
And the bench, oh the bench! It is real heavy and sturdy. I only paid $15 for it :-) As of now it is in my laundry room. I am not quite sure where its permanent home will be but I love it.
My total spent was $22 and I had a great time. I love junking!
