I got my hard working man his own mini fridge for the basement. They wanted $7 but I talked them down to $5.
Other than a bit of dust, this thing is brand new! We like to play Poker in the winter so it will be perfect for our mini bar.
I also got this rake for $5, I figured I was hosing them on the fridge so I wasn't going to barter the sweet little old couple on the rake, and Brownie seems to like it.
The sweet lady threw these little charmers in for free! They were covered in dust and vegetation, this is them after their bath. They each are sitting on a plastic egg.
Who doesn't love a crochet chicken? Not me!
Update My kids got home and started squeezing the chickens and were shooting the eggs at each other and commented how cool it would be to do that in real life. (I laughed) The big egg shot out, went in half and a baby chick popped out! So adorable! I love these even more.
Speaking of eggs, it feels like Easter here.
I found this on the woodpile.
I found this in a garbage can. Can you imagine squatting in a dirty can, pushing out your egg?
And why is a spoon in there?
Soccer games for Saturday and Sunday I have an artisan market show in Ann Arbor. http://www.artisanmarket.org/ It's like a Farmers Market but for artists. It runs from April through December 11-4 (I have to be there by 9), but since it's on Sunday, I usually don't go, Hubbies only day off. This Sunday they are featuring local Etsy Artists so I thought I'd meet new artists and promote my shop. Cross your fingers for good weather for us.
Have a great weekend!

Fingers crossed!
Thank you for the beautiful purse and the tissue holders as well! VERY sweet of you and of course the girls love them. They like the purse too but they aint getting that because its MINE! :):)
bwhahaahah! This post made me grin HUGE! You are so funny, Michelle.
What a fabulous surprise having that crocheted chick pop out of the egg. Now if only there had been a $20.00 bill surprise inside that cool mini fridge....or a six pack of good beer! hehe
And what was up with that spoon in that garbage can?
My kids sometimes slip up and drop a spoon into the trash, too. Drives me crazy. Why is it always spoons???
I've had to buy more spoons over the years to make up for our ongoing spoon deficit(OSD). hah!
So who was it that laid that egg in the trash can anyway? Since it was a white egg....can we call the girl: 'white trash'?
Good luck with the next show. Wishing beautiful weather thoughts for you.

Okay...that little chick popping outta the egg? Im still laughing at that. That just makes those chickens the best ever.
Poker, huh? Is there money involved? Or some other kind of ante?
I cant imagine squatting in a clean can to push out an egg. Altho, having a spoon in there....that may make all the difference.
Sending good thoughts for your show. You will do great! All of your stuff is fantastic.
Mo, Yay! I'm so glad you and your girls are happy. I'm also glad the Post Office didn't lose it.
Laughing orca, it takes one to know one.
If you only knew what I could do with a 20 and a six pack...
I interrigated the 3 and hubby confessed to pitching the spoon when he cleaned the basement. I was still confused as to why, but i did get a clean basement out of the deal, and it wasn't a spoon from my set.
"White trash" hee hee. The egg is actually a bit tan, and small, so it came from a Dark Cornish hen. They recently started laying and are finding interesting places to squat.
Thank you so much
Frugalmom, I knew i wasn't the only one who loves those crochet chickens!
We do play for $$. I don't always lose even though I'm usually the only sober one.
Ok, I'm now imagining you sqatting in a clean can holding a spoon and I cant stop laughing. You win funny comment of the day!
Hey Michelle,
I just trotted back over here again to tell you thanks for the wonderfully supportive and kind comments you left for me on my blog, concerning my son's injury.
It is much appreciated, my friend :)
Take Care,
Lisa
