#FoodieFriDIY – Double the pleasure! Double the fun! Two sets of features playing catch up from pre-vacay party.
It’s #FoodieFriDIY time! I’ve doubling up on the features this week. Double the pleasures! Double the fun!! I have to make up for missing last week’s features and then this week’s features. TWICE THE FEATURES!!
We are back from Florida! It was a relatively quick trip there and back. Our time was split between his dad and step-mom then his mom and step-dad. Yes. I’m so lucky to have no one but TWO – count ’em TWO – sets of in-laws. Lucky me!!
We did have a good time, though. There were fun times, pizza parties, and antiquing to be had by us and some poor people who just went along because they did. I’m not sure they really wanted to so much as wanted to spend time doing what we liked for the day.
Surprisingly enough, we’ve been collecting this patter for a few years now and it takes a trip to Florida to find some pieces in colored glass. We found a few key pieces and a large, red ash tray and a medium, amber bowl. We were thrilled! This makes up for the fact that we were duped by the reproduction that we were suckered in to. C’est la vie! Now, on to the party!
To help this fabulous party grow, please place a button on your sidebar or somewhere in your link up post so people can see that you’re partying with us at #FoodieFriDIY.
