SITE UPDATE -- FINALLY!
After reaching an agreement with a business that will be selling the designs, I will at long last be restoring the storefront over the next couple of weeks.

NEWS & DOINGS
Poor Scampers hasn't been himself lately, and no wonder: We took him to the vet and discovered that he's suffering from a "raging UTI".
Poor beastie! I've had those myself and I know they are not pleasant. He's on antibiotics now and we are hoping he'll be back to his old self soon.
This small lamp cord, complete with a line switch, takes standard C9 incandescent lightbulbs -- the size used for outdoor Christmas lightswhen I was a kid.
I'm not sure yet what I'll use it for, but I do a lot of Christmas decor and for only $1 , I figured it might come in handy.
I had only a small paperback copy of the Joy of Cooking; so I was pleased to find this lovely hard cover version, which is in remarkably good shape, for only a couple of bucks at my favourite thrift store.
The vintage Blue Boy figurine that stood on the piano in our front room all through my childhood was almost certainly made of some kind of plaster.
It was slightly taller than this one, and more crisply detailed -- nicer altogether. I don't know his history, where he came from or even where he ended up. We liked to bring our dolls to meet him, and despite his delicate constitution, we liked to try to play with him. He's long gone -- no doubt having fallen victim to our efforts to have him join in our games.
Although this Blue Boy figurine isn't identical to the one my Mum had, it still reminds me powerfully of her, so naturally I couldn't resist adding him to my collection of treasures.
Santa took a liking to this kitschy little glass figurine, maybe because he knew that we had our 25th anniversary this year . . .
That Santa's sure sentimental.
I would bet this little figurine is going to end up in my stocking next December.
I absolutely fell in love with this little triangular bowl when I saw it at the thrift store this week.
It's so lovely, and it makes me smile every time I look at it.
I'm pretty sure DH picked it up to put under the tree for me. I sure hope so!
