Yesterday was an absolutely yucky day, weather-wise. It rained all day, was cold and windy, and I swear I saw some snow. I was feeling a little under the weather with pink eye (a side effect of working with pre school children) so I took the day off of work. After I got my eye under control, my oldest son and I decided to brave the elements and hit the local Community Thrift. We had a few other errands to run first so we were coming from a totally foreign direction. After a wrong turn (is there really such a thing?) we encountered this guy. After giving us some sage advice, he gave us directions and sent us on our way. His advice? "Stay out of the rain."
The thrift store trip did not turn up much of a vintage nature, but I did score some American Eagle jeans for my youngest son. He is at the age where it is all about the labels and I am at the age where I cannot justify paying forty dollars for a pair of jeans. An Abercrombie polo completed the outfit for a sum of $9.89 and we were both happy!!

Remember those horrible apple trees in "The Wizard of Oz"? I did not like those at all.
We've had a lot of rain up here too (I'm in Ontario) but things seem to be getting better...will try and send some sun down to you!
I love that cookbook cover - I'm very glad my DH is nothing like those guys. But what a retro treasure!
And merci for the link! I'm going to link you too - I like your blog! :)
