lovin' it

A whole week since I last posted, where did that week go I wonder???
I am loving this vintage suitcase I found at the op shop last week. I have a few big ones and a little one so this is the Goldilocks one, in between and just right! I will finally use the others, and this one to store fabric and yarn in and put them in my work space and not under the bed.
I am loving the huge chocolate cake Isobel made yesterday! Not much of it left today

and thank you to everyone who shared their thoughts about Pay It Forward. Just for those who aren't sure what it is I'll explain it next post and also my thoughts about it too. For now I need a pot of tea and a Nana nap :)
back soon

Yes, I'm a collector of vintage suitcases too. Have even found enough of them for my red ted buddy down the road! I use them for trundling my wares to market and home again. And that cake looks delicious!!

Fabulous suitcase... imagine the stories it could tell.

And please compliment Isobel on that icing and decorating... a girl after my heart with those 100s & 1000s...!!

Great suitcase. Another op shop find I see. Thanks for popping up and commenting on the challenge. It's been fun and I can't believe how many people have found it interesting. It's been great to hear what people have had to say.
