Chrissy, Cam, Evie and I visited the Goodwill Outlets on Indy’s NW and SW sides earlier today. There wasn’t really one theme or outstanding purchase from today’s thrifting adventure; instead, it felt a little like a trip through more than a century worth of history.

Many treasures were found today, including this delightful tome published in 1883.

I love the contrast of these two tales about cats…”Dick Whittington” (1934) and  “Puss in Boots” (1955).

Above: Bromwell stainless steel tools and “A Text-Book of Cooking” (1915) and “The American Women’s Cookbook” (1938). Below a book on birding from the 50s and a retro thermos and Coleman drink cooler. Below that, a funky Tupperware pitcher a Johnson’s milk bottle and a retro table cloth.

It’s always Christmas-time at the Goodwill.  Today’s holiday highlights include a vintage sled, a wintery paint-by number, holiday fabric and ribbons etc.

And of course there were games…

It is still July for a little longer so, below are some of the patriotic finds of the day.

Above, Cam and  Evie, kidding around. Below, the car crammed as full as we could get it. and below that, Evidence that Cam shopped til he dropped!
