Antiquing is an "on the job" history class. Everytime you go to an auction, or to a yard sale, or into a thrift store, you are holding someone's past in your hands. Sometimes it is humbling, sometimes sad, sometimes exciting, but always, the thrill of the find is there.

Super Bowl Sunday. Yippee. No time for much today. I have to get my Sunday morning biscuits made, clean the kitchen, mop the floor and then start the chili. We picked the beer up yesterday, and the avocados for guacamole (is that spelled correctly?). But there is always time to sit and post a pic here. We've been playing with Photo Shop, but you can still see some shadows on our Chalkware Balloon People. I love the colors, and their faces. Whoever created these, they captured expressions certainly worthy of preserving. She has a wreath of roses in her hair, which matches the roses in her basket. Notice his "hobo" bag. Their neck scarves match; blue polkadots. These are for sale at $32 each, or $60 for the pair.
