RANDOM ESTATE SALE
i forgot my camera. OH NOES! i was going by the open house web site's photos. WRONG HOUSE PICS! damn. was a 1st quarter of the 1900's little house. very sweet. i loved the tiny very 20's kitchen. old cupboards. big stove in a niche. bigger niche than ours. older stoves bigger i guess. fridge in the back hall niche. getting stuff out a little dangerous. bedrooms blocked off. family keeping most stuff i think. well, i didn't spot anything on my way to the kitchen, tho i grabbed the little vase($1-SIGNED). not much in the kitchen. but grabbed the old steamer. ours has been limping on 1 leg. i need an old butter pat and bent metal thing for 2 other legs. go to the basement, which was nearly empty except 1 shelf full of detritis of the ages. finally found what had been a work bench, but no bench? sold? moved w/ family? not much, but i spied a evil little toll, shoe making? nice old old handle. back up stairs look again at kitchen stuff..
well. i might as well take the mug. i do like it. another look in the dinningroom. take the brass flowers, signed! and spot a very old incense package. AND i made a big mistake. i should have just got the elish tray with sauce bowls and 6 open salts w/ 3 ball feet. aunstrian and very clean and modern, but deco. MY B BAD. but will see what ebay says. free shopping or do i get paid? i can use the mug for hot chocolate.
