Yesterday was a bright sunny warm day, the kind of day where you could BELIEVE that the season between winter and summer had actually arrived, even on the Frozen Tundra.
Eloise called me up and said, "Let's go to that little shop I was telling you about the other day."
Well - - - I'm always game for an adventure of the shopping kind, and especially with Eloise - - - so away we went.
It was not.
What, you don't believe me??? I am selective, SELECTIVE in which photos I allow to go on this blog!! But I digress.
Miss Lori's quiet little shop is only open on selective days of the year - - - several days in the spring, several in the fall, and several around Thanksgiving. That's all. Either get there then, or miss out.
Here are the results of my craziness yesterday:
There never seems to be room in my pantry to store a loaf of bread without squashing it flatter than a frog under the front tires. So I've been coveting a breadbox of my very own.
AND, mama's happy - - - we all know how important THAT is.

Those are the kind of outings I enjoy. Wish I could have been there with you. You found great buys and using them well.
I think you had a blast Miss Keetha! Love the red tin breadbox, I'm 'green' with envy! The prints are super cute and I'm glad Beauregard Bearski isn't quite so lonely.
hugs, Linda
Oh, now this post I could oh so do...the tech thing is ?able, but going to nooks and crannies out in the country, I WANT to go there, but it won't be open in Aug. when I plan on coming to HS reunion in Point...I will have to try somewhere else, maybe in Waupaca or Amherst or.....
I loved seeing these pictures and your adventure there. And, the breadbox is perfect...my bread gets squished also...Maybe I will go out today to find some quaint store here in the Triad. Thanks for inspiring me to venture out.
I so love your frog under the front tires analogy.
For sure, the frog picture is quite a vivid one. I have a fine roll-top breadbox and can never seem to get GoodGuy to cooperate with me. It all gets in there occasionally.
Your outings with Eloise sound like lots of fun! I like your new pictures too.
Love the bread box...love the prints...love the store. But, it is hard for me to think of the name Eloise as having another pronunciation. That was my Mom's name, and I've heard it way too many times to change now! :-)
I LOVE the prints!!!
I believe I spotted the prints hanging on the wall in the shop. They do look at home in your guest bath, I must say!
Still speechless on the Droid...
Oh my goodness, I just love Eloise and shopping with her must be SO much fun! Those prints sure look nice hanging above Beauregard's head! Tin breadbox, those are really coming back! New ones aren't as good as old ones!
Have a fun weekend dear Keetha, HUGS!
A real breadbox? Wow!
What a lovely store and a great breadbox. Mostly, however, it looks like a wonderful day spent with a friend.

I want a bread box! And I like your droid. AND the orioles and hummingbirds have been battling over the bird feeders outside!
What an adorable little shop! That brad box is perfect... save me from re-stretching a piece of half smushed bread back into shape.
That shop is adorable.
I would love to go shopping with you and Eloise! What a cute place! You snagged some good finds I do think.
The shopping experience I did NOT get to this weekend is probably something you would enjoy. There are more events coming up this year. Check out their site at Hawthorne Hill Farm.
Your bread box reminds me of one my aunt had on the farm.
