~ Thrifty Thursday ~

Hi Friends,

Happy Thursday to ya! Almost Friday… woohoo!!!

Zumba was awesome last night! I bet we burned a 1000 calories in that hour! Woohoo! I can not lie… I am now obsessed with Zumba! Completely and totally. Love it!

After Zumba… we took our first ride of the year on the Harley. Wow. Beautiful night. I just can not believe the weather we have been having. We are planning on riding Sunday too and it’s supposed to be in the 70’s.

So lets get to the goodies shall we?

Lazy Susan… which I use as a Crock lid!

As always, Carmen, you find the best things. I just found out that you can shop online at Goodwill, any location in US.

What a great idea for a crock or even a furkin without a lid, now I know to keep my eyes open for a lazy susan for my furkin. I did use a wood palte for a crock but to big for the furkin.

Love the herb rack, so cool, I'd love to find something like that! The stool is precious, can't wait to see what you do with it. Have you gotten a chance to do anything with the fireplace yet?

Give the Primcats a pat for me!

Carmen,

Yep, you can really burn the calories doing Zumba. I take a class once a week and it's fun. The other days I do body pump...gotta build those muscles. Anyway, love your treasures and the little foot stool is too stinkin' cute.
