Fastnacht Day & Fat Tuesday

Happy Fastnacht Day & Fat Tuesday!

Well the weather has not changed, snow is very sparkley this time and right now it is 15 degrees, so I will stay put for a bit before I head outside to see what needs to be moved today.

I need to go and poke around in the inventory to see what to take into the shop this week, but we keep the heat at the minimum so the pipes don't freeze but it does make for a cold, cold building. But, it is necessary with the price of oil, we can't afford the house (IMPORTANT) and the outbuilding. Such is life :-(.

Have a good day my friends and if you can, do something fun!

 

 

 

Snow, Ice, Cold - Repeat

Yep that is what the week started out like and will likely end up like, except maybe not the snow and ice. But, wheat we have on the ground will surely stay around for a while, we will be getting a very very cold blast of artic air late the week/weekend. I read on one of my many weather pages where they suggested a person might not want to venture out on Saturday/Sunday do to the cold air. But, it won't be long now, (at least that's what I tell myself) Spring will soon be here, 39 days!! Yippy!!

Hope this brings a bit of a smile to you.

Hope you have a good afternoon and evening friends.

 



Full Moon

Happy Tuesday! A very cold but sunny day here in Eastern PA. Woke up to 12 degrees with wind chills below zero. But, there is nothing we can do about it except to move forward.

Tonite is a full moon. The full Snow Moon or Hunger Moon. Once the clouds parted last nite the almost full moon certainly did reflect off the snow so if it stays clear tonite I am sure we will be in for another moon lit night.

February's full Moon is called the Snow Moon because it was a time of heavy snow (yes). It was also called the Hunger Moon because hunting was difficult and hunger often resulted. And there you have another fun fact from my favorite, The Old Farmer's Almanac.

If you go out to view the moon, be sure to dress warm.

Have a good evening my friends.

More photo's of our Booth

Here are some additional photo's of our booth. I should add that some of the items in these photo's sold two days after I shot these. Now that is what we call a quick turn around. BIG SMILE.

The pile of wood items (really shutters and some type of wood hangers) were a few of the items that sold. We really have very good luck with any type of shutters that we sell. Hey maybe I am selling them too cheap, lol.

 

The blue and white bowl in the lower right corner is another item that sold. It is from Bavaria/Germany, good shape, no chips.

 

As you can see, still plenty of items, but this week I will be taking more in and moving things around. A day in the life of a antiques dealer who has lots of stuff, lol.

 

Have a great day!! Off to work at our Tuesday Auction and maybe find another treasure of two. Oh wait, didn't I just say we have too much stuff!!! Ha Ha
