    Nowadays you almost have to pay people to take Victorian furniture away. That may be changing, especially with something like that. It lets its wood do the talking.

    Car boot sale Sunday, I grabbed a lovely mahogany dumb waiter. I was much cheered that two lads in their twenties were very envious and loved it. They said most modern furniture is crap!

    Not many at shows here, but they are in thrifts and estate sales with phones out looking up everything.

    Still haven't photographed my stuff, but this I found in a local antique mall. When something makes me lol, I have to buy it.

    On the subject of teapots and cookbooks, here are some of mine in the kitchen. I found these In the Kitchen with Bob cookbooks, and my husband's name is Bob, so I pasted pictures of his head over the real Bob's head.

    And some second-hand furniture. The 1930's nightstand holds canned cat food.

    Can't seem to resist McCoy Pottery! I remember when the teapot sets were much more expensive than what I just paid for this one.

    Get 'em fat enough and they can't jump that high? It's a possible plan.
