As we were perusing some fancy antique stores, Susan excitedly cried out, "Katie! I read your blog, and... they have Pyrex here, and I think it's your pattern!"

Sure enough, stashed down on a junky shelf in the back of the store was this:

A nice addition to the collection! And an excellent example of a good friend.

I haven't had a ton of time to thrift lately, but I did want to share a few fun finds from the past few months.

I was gifted the casserole dish, and found the butter dish on ebay and the shakers on etsy (here). All in great condition and all in frequent use in our home!
