Thrifty Thursday

Well I've finally gotten around to starting my THRIFTY THURSDAY, Today is my grandma's birthday, so I think it only appropriate that I show you something that really tells what an influence she has been on me and my family.

My grandmother is a hard working, honest, loving, forgiving, Godly, cancer surviving woman! She is who has influence my love of old thing(she & my gpa own an antique store) and country items. I went to an auction this past weekend. Trix the lady who passes was one of my grandma's close friends, so of course I wanted something to remind me of that (the best items I got of true Trix character I'm holding for next Thursday. Trix was the owner of "The Calico Inn" the best little place in the world to eat. So here is my item related to the Inn.

 I couldn't resist it has LAUREL on it! I only paid $5 !!! Can you believe it?! Stands about 2 1/2 feet tall. I love it!

    We should go to one together! Don't plan on them all being so cheap. It can be hit and miss
