Cows, wooden hangers and funghi pizza.

On our way out to lunch the other day my husband saw a yard sale sign and had to follow it for miles and miles… and honestly? Too many miles out of our way.

.

.

Yes we passed cows, which is always nice. But the sale was a disappointing collection of junk no one would want …

.

.

Except my husband who found a box of old wooden hangers.

Can you see my eyes rolling from there?

Hangers in hand, he turned around and headed back towards the restaurant but found a small flea market on the way and had to stop.

I swear… even though we made a nice amount of money at our yard sale this summer? The success of that weekend has rekindled the bargain shopping flame under my spouse that I spent years putting out.

Damn it!

Thankfully he didn’t buy anything worthless there and we did find a wonderful local woodworker who customized a nice multi grain board we’re going to give to our daughter of the heart’s southern husband for Christmas. He fell in love with Maine on his first visit and we constantly promote the idea of them moving here.

From left to right the woods are:

Red oak, Purple Heart, Hard Maple, Sapelle (mahogany family) and Black Walnut.

After that it’s more of the same mixed and alternating.

When the husband was finally done shopping?

I needed an apricot sangria.

.

.

We split a big spinach salad with goat cheese, candied walnuts and a lemon poppyseed dressing..

.

.

As well as a fabulous garlic white sauce mushroom and spinach pizza.

.

.

The crust was amazing, and yes we ate it all.

.

.

Exactly!

🤣

  4. The meme is hilarious—I’m drowning!

    I can’t with the yard sales and flea markets! I bow down to your patience. Yeah, I still recall how happy you were when you got rid of so much stuff….but look, he is who he is. I don’t think he can help it, and he’s not gonna change his ways at this point.

    Your meal looks amazing!

    The Maine cutting board is lovely!

  6. I don’t think we have a wooden hanger in the house, but I gotta say if I saw that box I might stop by just to check it out as well…if only for historical research. The pizza…I would do way more than just check it out. Love it.
