My partner in crime today was Maureen. We've been friends since our firstborns were in Kindergarten, and it's a friendship that's very dear to me. I should have photographed her loot as well since she bought a very pretty French looking table cloth, and some nice kitchen gadgets.

I have a soft spot for dishes, obviously. And blue and white dishes especially. This Johnson Brothers dinner/coffee set for 8 was priced at $25 and I got it for $20. And it included 10 plates and 7 cups and saucers from a different manufacturer, but blue and white also.

The yellow teapot was a bargain at $2: It's Fiestaware, and the original price sticker of $36 is still on the bottom of the pot. http://colorfuldishes.com/product_info.php/cPath/251_255_326/products_id/5001

Jean O', the Vera Bradley bag cost seventy-five cents.  http://www.handbagconsignmentshop.com/bags/totes/vera-bradley-villager-tote/

All in all a great morning spent with a great friend! Now to find a place for it all!
