The way I had read about it was...that there was an avanlanche, no an ORGY of flea markets and antique malls......
And I couldn't wait to visit.....
We only stopped at 1 mall, mall is stretching the truth, even gilding the lily....The mall was okay, but it was regular sized, and kinda of boring.
Let's face it I prefer utilitarian objects from the turn of the century up until the 70's, the place didn't have a lot...
Mostly tchatskies....and ornate victorian knickknacks.....
We passed on half a dozen of Antique and Gift shops.....which are even less my thing....and they are the same shops I LOOOOVED when I was a child.
But not this time. So that was it for
I also visited 3 other thrifts....
I wanted to bring this red Dansk baking dish home with me
but it had a big ding on the other side
This thrift shop is in York, Maine
it is spotless and full of treasures...
I don't really get the mushrooms motif but it is fitting if you live
near the forrest!
not appetizing....
One of my classic's
I did spot this Pyrex bottle
But somehow my heart was not in it....
I also visited the Portsmouth, NH Goodwill.
I did not bother to take pictures....
I was pretty bummed out!
But my frown was turned into a big ol'smile with
this big bowl of Goldenrod's clam chowder!
So delicious!
