Dressing Rodney

We thrifters know that pretty clothes aren't the only cool thing to come upon while spending hours hunting the second hand stores! Meet Rodney, the best dressed pig you're ever going to see! The reason why I just had to have this cute little guy is because I used to have a drama teacher named Rodney and I looooooved him so much! And what's more is that he too was fabulously dressed, with a cute round belly and a constant smile that gave away his sincerely enthusiastic outlook on life. After I found this little pig, I googled Rodney my old teacher to get back in touch. Ended up finding out he now teaches at a different college in MI, sent him a message over facebook just yesterday, and can't wait to hear back from him! I think I need to repackage this little guy and send him to my old favorite teacher as a gift. Which outfit do you like the best? I prefer the court jester look. :) Paper dolls are so fun, it's been years since I've played with them!

Scrambled Eggs and WHAT?!

Speaking of cool thrift store finds. . . how about creepy thrift store finds?

One of my friends recently showed me this book he bought while thrifting, and I couldn't believe it! I'll let the pics speak for themselves, keep in mind the copyright date was sometime in the 1940's. I'm sure glad that our general diet has changed. . . a little.

Do you cook for your loved ones? Imagine if they came home to find this cookbook on your counter opened to one of these pages.

GROSS, yet makes me quite giggly. :D






Keep this book away from Dexter! ;)

Coolest thrift store find # 1,000,004

It's a vintage burger mug! Isn't it suh-weet?
You just never know what you're going to find out there in thrifting land. . .
Look at the melted cheese and textured lettuce!



And here's the sesame seed bun topper.


I love finding fun mugs. One of these days I'm actually going to take some pics of my faves and show them to you all.



It's true dear blog readers. . .
