THEY ARE COMING AFTER ME!!!

What a cute little blue bowl! And it is only $2.00; I can't pass that up.Down the road - why there is another one and only $1.00!!


Another day - I need three for a collection!

Then there were more.

Oh my, they come in a lighter shade of blue.

What?? Green and even chartreuse!!

Gray and beige -I need my neutrals.

Light brown!!!

Dark brown!!!

Stop me!!! Save me from this mark!!!

The march of the 5" bowls!! They are coming this way!!! Protect me!!!

Thank goodness that the market for antiques is helping me out. I very rarely see these bowls for under $20 anymore; and with this many, I don't need to pay that kind of money. Or do I?

Wow! You could get 20 of them for $20. If you needed 20 bowls that is. Looks like good soup bowls to me. Were there any in red?

Oh how funny! I loved this post as it speaks to what kind of women we really are. I get mad when a manufacturer makes something I love in six colors because he knows I am incapable of just buying the red one!

Have a Terrific Tuesday
