I actually have something to post. Since I was on my own this afternoon,I decided to see what the thrift shops in my area had to offer. I went to three of them, and left empty-handed from the first. At the second I spotted this Riedel glass which matches what we have. At 99 cents, I snapped it up. Sadly, they only had the one. At the third I bought three books which set me back a total of $3.33.
A bit of a story about the Canlit book. I used to have it but had to purge my books when we moved and that was one of them. I took the two recipes I knew I absolutely wanted (nanaimo bars and date squares) and saved them to Evernote. I am throwing a birthday party on the 13th and thought I would make the Nanaimo bars from the recipe from that book except I can't find it. The one for the date squares I had but not the other. So it was serendipity when I found the book today. And now, there will be date squares!
