On my way home from my brothers yesterday I had the choice to turn left for home or right to my favourite charity shop and of course I turned right!
I was pleased I did as I picked up 2 new Ladybird books for my collection (I think these are the best condition I've ever found any in)
and a pyrex gravy boat that matches some bowls and plates I already owned
I know we're only just experiencing some sunshine but I really see these plates piled high with a shepherds pie when Autumn arrives
That Pyrex design looks so familiar, but I'm not sure why? Shepherds pie - yum!xx
ReplyDeleteyou are soooo lucky in the charity shop!... fab finds... glad that you had a great weekend. Tx
ReplyDeleteoooh i love that...'shepherds pie for autumn'.....you'll have to let us see that xx
ReplyDeleteThose ladybird books do look good. I had the june rose pyrex when I was first married, but I do like the pattern you have collected.
ReplyDeleteGood decision on the detour :o)
ReplyDeleteI think those are the plates/dinner set that my nan had now why didn't she keep them!
Braved a bootsale in the heat yesterday, glad it was an early one as by 10 we were melting ;o) xx
Yes they are in excellent condition by the looks of them! Yummy, I can imagine a lovely dollop of shepherds pie on that pretty pryrex! suzie xxx
ReplyDeleteLovely finds - its hard to find anything vintage in my local CS now. Well done you!
ReplyDeleteGreat finds! The books look very sweet and I love the two pictures you found while visiting your brother. Where are you hanging them? hugs, Linda
ReplyDeleteYou're right the colours of that Pyrex are very mellow autumnal shades.

ReplyDeleteYou can't beat a Peter & Jane book - both my boys learnt to read using those.
