losing pounds...finding pottery


In about five pounds, I'll post a complete picture!   
This blog began when I had successfully lost weight
and was delighting in assembling a thrift-store wardrobe.
Alas, the "bloom was off the rose" the past year and I gained back
a great many of those pounds.  
I have finally gotten my groove back and now have a successful week of
healthy eating habits "under my belt" (no pun intended)!
Today I'm wearing a skirt I found at a thrift store
this summer. It has served me well,
but I look forward to returning to the wardrobe waiting for me
in my closet.
My weight-loss saga is documented HERE.
My husband was making a hospital visit yesterday afternoon.  
His route took him very close to my favorite thrift store.
I took advantage of that and enjoyed my browsing time.
I found these two WONDERFUL plates - works of an unknown potter.
My colors.  My style.  My price.
You could say I have a small "collection" of pottery.
I often find it irresistible.

  2. Greetings. I saw your comment on Jeanette's blog and wanted to visit. I hope your diet goes well. I love thrift store finds, too. Your pottery is my favorite color. I am still looking for a piece of Majolica that I can afford.

  8. That is the color of many things at the Mt. House and I would have snatched that pottery up in a minute.

  9. I like the color of your thrift store skirt! The pottery is a great find and a pretty color. Looks like the potter was talented, too. Funny how your husband's trip to the hospital just happened to be so near that thrift shop... ;)
