Thrift Store Score - Diet Scale

While I was home for Christmas in January, I went with Jewel, TaMera, Mom & Dad to one of their favorite thrift stores: The Bargain Box.

I came across this vintage diet scale that I snatched up for $1.

 I'm planning to just use it as a regular food scale, (I doubt any dieting will be involved).

Hasta luego!

Strawberry Blossoms ~ Wildflower Wednesday

Last year I shared planting my strawberries and the blueberry plant. (HERE) 

My blueberry plant died...But as you can see the strawberries are going strong!

Thrift Store Score? - Cattle Measurement Tape

Do you remember that time I bought a beaker, not totally on purpose? 

Well, this find was much like that...

See, this is a calf measurement tape. You wrap it around the calf and it tells you the estimated weight.

I ask you...Why, do I need a cattle measuring tape?

I guess if I ever want to make a dress for a cow...I'll have a measuring tape to fit it. haha

It is pretty cool looking. Maybe I'll use it as a decoration or part of a craft.

 If, I figure something out...I will be sure to tell you.

Purple Flowers Amidst the Grass ~ Wildflower Wednesday

It's been a year since we had a Wildflower Wednesday and two years since we have had more than one post for Wildflower Wednesday! Wow!
In all sincerity... I have missed it.

I'm hoping to change that! I have 4 (1/2) posts planned...so far. 

I was about to go and take pictures of the large amount of dandelions to show you when I noticed these beautiful flowers.
(If you want to see photos of our dandelions. Go look at any recent style or sewing post...trust me. You don't have to look hard to find them!)
