Today went a lot better than expected! I got out of class early, my final was canceled and I found pink Pyrex! I finally managed to stop at a consignment shop near campus this afternoon. I have tried stopping a few times but they always seem to be either closed or I'm in too much of a rush. They had a few other pieces that were in bad condition, but they had this beauty! And it was only $5! I was thrilled. It had quite a bit of baked on grease on the handles but a little scrubbing (baking soda helped a lot!) and magic eraser and it looks great! It will look so cute with my turquoise round casserole :)
Managed to pick up a few other goodies today as well. Found navy vintage polka dot fabric at the church thrift store. There is 2.5 yards of it, and for only $1.75! I love using polka dot fabric to line things. It's subtle but more exciting than a solid fabric. I also found these handle bowls today. They are for Michael. His family has some and they are perfect for ice cream! For only $.80 I couldn't leave them! It will be like a little bit of home for him here in Berea! Now we just need to get some Schwan's chocolate ice cream and we'll be good to go!
I've been on a movie spree since I've been here alone this weekend. Tonight I watched 21 and Horton Hears a Who. 21 was pretty good! It was pretty interesting and I mean, Jim Sturgess is in it. So even if it had sucked, there's some nice eye candy! ;) Horton Hears a Who was actually pretty good! I was a little skeptical and I've never read the book, but I enjoyed it! The look of it was really neat. I was pleased :) Now it's time for some Entourage!
