    Love the finds.
    Jadite bowls, always a good find. What size are they? The smallest one in the original set was 5 inches across (and is rarer) and still gets a mighty nice price if in good shape.

    Cute kittens too.

    Actually Girl Kitty isnt really a street cat,her mother was and had her and her brother (who also disappeared during Irma) so Ive always fed and watered her. She sorta friendly,but very antsy around anyone but me. This is her second litter (I know,very irresponsible of me) but I gave the last ones away when they were old enough.Believe me shes getting fixed this time! Didnt mean to hijack the finds thread,sorry Mods!

    This is not the first time this thread has made a sharp right turn & gone on an adventure. We usually somehow meander back to the original subject. :happy::happy::happy:

    Believe me no one here will pop you on the knuckles or scold you for talking off topic. That is what happens when people talk about things. It is called conversation!!! :p:p:p

    I think that is one of the things that irked me the most about the ebay boards at the end. Every time we started to have a little fun on a thread the anti-fun police would show up & scold us like we were children. :arghh::arghh::arghh:

    thanks Aaron and komokwa:)
    The clock gets annoying quickly. They are called the screaming reel alarm clock for good reason, the alarm is a voice yelling 'hey, get up, you got a bite' with the sound of a runaway reel in the background

    Not a new find, but a re-find. Monster cloissonne cuff links. They're the size of dress clips or shoe buckles. I'd never seen any this big and they proved irresistable; I hope at least one buyer feels the same. DSCF9359.JPG
