Rain is in the forecast here for the second week in a row. Yay!
I’m looking forward to cooking, reading, and working on a giveaway for next week.
Can’t wait!

Thanks so much for this weekly inspiration, Kim. Love the car mirror and rhinestone necklace as repurposed items!
Rita
Yep! Makes me see things in a whole new light. Wanting to explore a junkyard soon.
Kim, where is Laurie Anna’s? I love the architectural pieces … that whole look she’s put together with the columns!
Barbara, so sorry, I meant to link to her Facebook page. I’ve updated my post. Laurie Anna’s is a store in Canton, and it’s wonderful.
Thanks so much, Kim! My luck she’s a 4 hour drive from here! But only an hour and a half from my sister. Sounds like a day trip to me!!
Yep! Canton is an incredibly fun place to explore. Be sure you go on a First Monday weekend and explore the HUGE flea market as well.
I love the second picture (Re)Collections for the story of time it tells. The slow life of a quiet little corner of the world. The occasional rusty car chugging by puffing its exhaust in short bursts of gray odorous richness, or the woman in the coat and head scarf towing her two wheeled cart as the wind blows by ruffling her paper bags while the thump of the wheels over the cracks in the sidewalk keep rhythm with the heels of her sensible black shoes, or even a skinny striped cat trotting across the street from one building to another looking for an opening in a foundation to disappear into…. Pictures like this leave me lost in my own mind where I can fully enjoy the made up uniqueness of places I have never been.
Bill, you are a poet. I can see what you see, and I love it!
