A TISKET AND TASKET.......Sally Sent Me an Easter Basket!

Every day when the mailman shows up he always has some sort of package
For the Boss....
I very rarely get anything unless LLBean is having some sort of sale....
So I was surprised today when he came in from picking up the mail and
handed me a big box.....
This couldn't be for me...I haven't bought anything?
That's when the Boss said....."It's for you from someone named Sally"YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My dear blog friend Sally from
Sent me this wonderful Milk Glass basket.....
Complete with Easter grass and chocolate eggs....
The adorable tag was such a nice touch don't you think?

Sally knows that I'm a collector of Milk Glass and she must know I also love
Chocolate....
What a wonderful unexpected surprise from a very special lady....
Thank You Sally!!!
You are so thoughtful and you knew what a good home it would be getting!


And here is a picture of my ever growing collection ........Thanks to the kindness
Of family and friends....
And the best part is that each new piece I get is a piece I didn't have....

Stop by and visit Sally if you don't already know her.......
You will fall in love with her....
She is what blogging is all about..

Just stopping by and thought I'd leave a comment, hope you don't mind.

I love your new Easter basket. It was so nice and thoughtful. Blogging friends are the best aren't they!?!

You have such an amazing collection of milk glass. I love your punchbowl and have been looking for one myself. My mom has one that I fell in love with. I'll just keep thrifting and one will show up one day or another.

Take care and have a great weekend.

You have quite the collection of milk glass... Wow! I have been looking for a few pieces myself and could kick myself when I think of all the pieces my mom and grandma put in yard sales. Who knew?

Sue, how sweet of her to think of you and send you that perfect gift. You have an extensive milk glass collection don't you? I have been looking at milk glass and cream ware. Cream ware is a little costly.

Love your milk glass collections, Sue. And what a lovely gift from your friend. There is something so exciting about getting a package in the mail. I love it when that UPS truck stops at my house.

Hi Sue-- As usual, you are too kind with your words. You know I can never repay you for all of the wonderful things you have done for me. Glad you liked the little basket. I knew you had one basket, but this one was a little different shape. Enjoy the chocolate - I'm working on the other half of the bag. We're partners in choco crime! Sally

Daughter got a call on Wednesday at 4:00 a.m. from our home town Police Force..... It seems the "Big Boss" called them after seeing women in his closet and a dead man hanging from his Ceiling Fan.... Only Problem.......He doesn't have any ceiling fans in his house... Daughter...... having to make the decision what to do with him.....since we were home in Georgia sound asleep....and unable to hear even a bomb go off... Had the police take him to the local hospital...... Now the BB is heading towards 90 in a few months.... He lives alone and still drives.... We have been trying to get him into an Assisted Living Home for the past three years... He refused to budge.... He refused to let anyone into the house.. We also tried to get him to give up his license....to no avail.... The sad part is we could not get anyone to assist us... His doctor told us years ago that he was a grown man and we couldn't tell him what to do.... So back to the ER this Wednesday he was checked ...

TIME OUT..........................

In the best interest of my left hand I find it necessary to take a short break from blogging.......that nasty staph infection has refused to go away and with no signs of it improving I need to stop using the computer......every time I go online to type the finger resembles W.C. Fields nose.....not a good thing.....I hope I can return soon and catch up with my Weekends in Paris....but in the meantime...remember.....Don't garden without gloves!! See you all soon.....
