Butterflies in the Garden

I never tire of watching butterflies in my garden!

I planted 3 butterfly bushes so I would have plenty of places to watch them.

I haven't a clue what kind of butterfly this is, but how pretty!

A short little stubby one!

This one is bigger than the flower!

Still hungry!

A new friend for Daisy!

Hey! Where'd ya go?

Thrift Shop Finds...Don't Get Too Excited...

Is that not the most underwhelming title? 

A hint of things (not) to come?

My lack of thrift store finds post should have been a tip off.

sigh

I love thrifting and was so excited to go!

I thought the she stars were lined up.

It was a weekday!

I was off of work!

I could be there when all the good stuff was first put out!

Sadly, it was not to be.

The first store was closed all week.

The second store was closed permanently.

The third store was open, but the shelves might as well have been empty 

as I found nothing.

That's right...

nothing.

I still had a couple of days off so I persevered over the next few days.

Finally!

I found something to show you.

Oh, yeah, not that. Daisy under the tree right before I took it down.

(what is it with cats under the Christmas tree? I guess its better than cats IN the tree...)

I found THIS...

A large Banana Republic silver bowl!

A little beat up but still wonderful!

Now, what should I do with it?
