Flea Market Outing
For the baby, I got a handful of old kid's books--some for .50 cents and some others for $2.50.
I liked this vendor's stuff--old scales, farming equipment, metal stools, and . . .
this great, old map of San Francisco that I got for $25. My mom bought Paula an old map of New York that was similar to this one for $100, and though it was in better condition than this one, I couldn't resist. I love it. It will go in our hallway. I think I'll have it framed but without glass.
I got this old painted lamp for $10. I've been wanting a new lamp for our bathroom, which has somehow taken on a floral theme so I think it will look cute in there. I just need a little shade for it.
Then do you remember the quilt top I got last weekend, the one on the right? Well, I also liked the one next to it, but didn't get that one then, but it was there today and I got it for $15. When I got home and opened it up, I noticed a price tag. I looked at it, and it said $200! Yikes, I think I got a deal.

Cherry Pie!
The pie was delicious! Andrew preferred this one he made with sour cherries and bing cherries to the one a few weeks ago that he made with just bing cherries, but I think I liked the other one a tad bit more. Just a tad bit though! The recipe came from Cooks Illustrated, and I think it's pretty perfect.

Flea Market Outing
Ah, a lovely lady. But do I really need another lady painting? I'd like another one, but she looked a little too melancholy for me today, and I wasn't sure I wanted to pay $65, though I think she was definitely worth it. The frame alone was great.
A huge bird cage! Not quite as big as Lisa's, but still very big and it looked really old.
One vendor that I really like a lot always has boxes of stuff in groupings--box of clocks, box of doll shoes, box of doll heads, box of door knobs, box of cars and trucks, box of vintage books, etc. I love looking through his boxes. He was also the one selling the lady portrait that I liked. And he sells re-purposed little brooms like you see in the first picture at the top of this post.
What a great trunk! I want a trunk for the baby room to serve as storage and a coffee table to go in front of the daybed we're getting ready to buy. The trunk was in Mary Millman's space, whose space always looks like a little antique shop. She does a great job arranging things so that everything looks nice and so you can see everything at once. A little decorated corner of the flea market. We got to talking and learned we both love the south! Ah, the south, where it's hot. Call me crazy, but I wouldn't have minded a little hot. Anyway, Mary is featured this month in the Maine Antiques Digest and can be found at the flea market on Sundays or by appointment if you might be interested in her antiques: sfflea@earthlink.net. She also had a great rug, below.
