Boy you guys must have some terrific thrift stores in your area. I've been

hit about 4 in the past month and found nothing in the kitchen(only broken,

scratched, missing parts stuff) or cookbook area.......... I need to look up

some more in other cities that I shop in, so I can hit them too.

Sorry, Marilyn! I am the Queen of the Thrift stores. My husband once

furnishings and said.....Yuppers.

Not much going on in my freecycle. Usually it's someone wants something.

That I don't have to give.
