Nested Treasure

 Ooooooooh.  Aaaaaaaah.  Just look at this gorgeous set of primary colored nested Pyrex mixing bowls.  I found them on the bottom shelf of the thrift section that I call "ridiculously expensive".  These must have been priced by the new guy, though, because LOOK at the price tag:

Yep.  Seven dollars and ninety cents.  Yay me, yay me... happy dance, happy dance.  Upon close inspection, they are in near mint condition.  Value: $80+ for the set.  Wooohooooooo!!!

"Well, my friends, the time has come...


...to raise the roof and have some fun. Throw away the work to be done...Let the music play on (play on, play on). Everybody sing, everybody dance. Lose yourself in wild romance! We're going to party, Karamu, fiesta, forever...Come on and sing along!" ~ Lionel Ritchie

Yes. This is the song I have been singing (in my head, fortunately) since my trip to the Salvation Army on Friday. And to think, all these years I have been singing *carambo* instead of "karamu". But, I digress.

In addition to this gloriously perfect retired rose-pink disk pitcher, I also found (equally gloriously perfect): the covered butter dish, pie plate, large serving tray, gravy boat, and 4 cereal bowls. And a second disk pitcher!! There will be a pink fiesta happening this week at sosovintage...
come on and sing along!
