THE WINNER AND A LOT OF SHOPPING!

What a fun weekend I have had! On Friday, a friend from work and I went over the bridge to a little town close by and had tea in a tea room. This tea room is in an old, old building. Here are a few pics (I have to tell you ... the first picture was from someone else's table. I forgot to take a picture of our food before we had eaten it all so I asked some ladies at the next table that got the same thing as us if I could take a picture! :-) click on picture for full view):

It was yummylicious! You should see this place at Christmastime! It is so pretty - they have a huge tree with decorations that you can purchase. While I was there, I bought this:

I just couldn't pass it up!! I love, love polka dots!

After tea, we roamed the streets looking for more stuff to buy! HA!! And look what I found to go with my new teapot! And they were 50% off!!!!!

Here are some more pictures from the stores:

Note the next picture that there is a water bowl? California is VERY dog friendly ... almost everywhere you go, store owners put out water bowls for the dogs.

On Saturday, another friend and I went to brunch for her birthday. But before we ate, we just had to stop at a local parking lot sale that a neat little store by us was having! Isn't this fun??

And look at what I bought (a little yellow child's chair, a yellow American Family kitchen scale, an plant urn and a cool old metal thermos)! I stuffed everything into the trunk of my little Mini Cooper ... the open space was for my friend's box of goodies that she bought.

And now ... the winner of the cute yellow purse is .... Anna from Thimbleanna!!! Boy ... Anna has been lucky this month ... she has won so many giveaways!! She better go buy a lottery ticket!!

Have a great week everyone!! I'll see you back here next week!
