  1. Hi, I'm visiting your blog from Thrift Share Monday. Nice find with those knitting needles. I like your cushion cover, love that natural gas commercial and I'm intrigued by your recipe for bubble and squeak fishcakes.

  3. Isn't it a nice thrill to find vintage items in perfect condition? Your needles are wonderful and such bright colors too. The green/gray color combo you choose for the cushion are lovely, I look forward to see how it turns out. :)
