Normally, I don't stop at Garage Sales, but while out walking around the neighborhood, behind me in the newer subdivision, a family was having a garage sale in their front driveway and near the sidewalk was a table with ceramic dishes. Right in front of me was this adorable dish. She was asking 50 cents for it, but I had no money with me at the time. I asked her if she'd hold it back for me while I walk back home and come back...well, she gave it to me!!! Yep. Just said "Oh, you can have it. I know you'll take it and love it." Can't argue with that. I'll probably use it for a stove-top spoon holder. It's a nice long shape for long handled utensils that I use...well, when I cook in my cauldron of a night time. :::witch's cackle:::
