Under advisement from our friends on Facebook we did a bit of op-shopping in Colac, but it wasn't very fruitful. Thrifting can be like that, can't it? One person's treasure trove is another's void. Or something. No matter, though. I must tell you that I did see HEAPS of vintage sheets at the Colac Salvation Army, but I was not looking for vintage sheets, so I left them there. We bought some 70s ceramics and some mittens and a few other bits and pieces. We had some lunch. I had the soggiest pink lamington I ever met. Not nice. Then we drove around. We looked at the lake and watched a magpie catch a mouse and a blue-tongue lizard slither under some rocks. We drove a bit more. I crocheted the scarf I am making. Ari slept. And then we drove back to Winchelsea and went to the Ladies Auxiliary Op-Shop (next to the Scout Hall). It was big and cluttered and messy (in a very good way!) THOSE are the kind of op shops I like. I DO NOT LIKE the neat ones. I like the cluttery ones with boxes of things and everything jammed in. I DO NOT LIKE the ones that are super clean and organised and sparse. Nope. I do not. We were all very excited after a bit of a rummage at Winchelsea. I think you should go there if you are in the area. But Cam told me not to blog about it. So you KNOW it must be good, right?! Don't tell him I told you to go to the Ladies Auxiliary Op-Shop in Winchelsea. Okay? They had Plum Jam and Zucchini Relish and Mustard Pickles too...
PS :: sorry for the YELLING!
PPS :: possibly should paint my nails...?!
