This and That

Get ready for some randomness.....

After a work meeting on Friday, my coworker and I headed to the Brass Armadillo in Des Moines, since he had some more things to add to his little sale area.  {Plus, we were about 5 miles from it.} 

This was my first time there.
 I have driven by this place I don't know how many times, but never stopped.

I don't know if I'll go back.  Prices are outrageous.

Well, not all.  But the things I liked, ridiculous!

Go figure.

 

I did spy this....

Growing up, this same canister set could be seen on the kitchen counter at the farm!

Who knew someone would now charge about $40 for all the pieces.

Too bad mom took her set to Good Will!

For some reason, it seems that most of this snow has already melted!  :(

I feel like I am one of only a few people who actually like/appreciate the snow.

I wish we had more.  :)

When mom and dad visited for my birthday,

I also got this treat.

And I ate them all!  They were delicious.  

I might have had 1 or 3 for breakfast at some point in time as well.  :)

I joined a new bandwagon.

'Turn a Canning Jar into a Travel Mug.'

On my way to Perry today for work, I had a jar with orange and pomegranet juice in it.

Once I drank that, I replaced it with water.

At lunch time, I moved the lid over to a different jar I had filled with milk.

Now that lunch is over, I moved it back to the water jar.

I love and have about a dozen drinking jars with handles. 
Unfortunately, the lid is for the widemouth jars only.  
So no fun travel jar with a handle on it for me.
Just the plain 'ol widemouth Ball jar.
But it is still fun!

Now how was that for some randomness?  

:)

Tomorrow afternoon, I'll be making my way across the Mighty Mississippi to visit my sister and niece/nephews....and my weekend begins!
