a tisket a tasket

 The thrift store side of my life has been neglected of late!
 However!  Yesterday we stopped at one of my favorites on the way to visit my parents.
I found the sweet white basket.  Thirty-five cents.
It joins a sewing basket that I picked up a few day ago.
Before I totally get my groove back,
I need to make a purging sweep through our back porch!
Have you purchased a charming basket lately?

And what's a tisket?
What's a tasket?

  1. Great white basket!! Yes, I purchased a basket lately. It was what I fell on when I got out of the truck at home! It is damaged on the corner a bit but still useable. The handle which drove into my ribs and sternum never even cracked! This is amazing...a tough basket. I think I will just use it, damaged or not, when my body heals!!!!!

  4. Hi Rebecca....

    From what I can ascertain from online, the words "tisket and tasket" have no specific meaning....they were just rhyming words to "basket" in an old children's game lyrics. Susan

    1. :) Clever! By the way, that's what I like about baskets...there's always a use for them. (Sometimes I use them to package a gift!)

  7. I have a weakness for baskets and own many. Haven't been thrifting in ages so haven't added any to my collection. Seeing yours surely tempts me to go shopping though. I like them both but finding the sewing basket would make my day.
