those little moments...

I can't imagine my life without pinching pennies.
Mostly because that is how it has always been, my life started in a simple trailer park neighborhood and even though we moved into a house when I was 2--we didn't ever have the luxury to buy whatever we wanted.

And pretty obviously I am still not at that place.
But that doesn't mean I can't afford myself the time for a good hunt to find little treasures. :)

I was pretty stoked to happen upon this game.
A sweet piece to put on our breakfast table.

And at .33* cents, what's a girl to do but buy that sucker?

    1. Thank you Heidi :)

      I was so pleasantly surprised with how artful and creative the photos ended up. That top one makes me want to get it printed and framed.

      So glad to have you!

  3. ah! I love those games. What a great find! I'm the same, I can't imagine my life without pinching pennies, and although part of me longs for the day when we can give and spend without stressing, I do love being able to find the little treasures :)

    1. AMEN. I am looking forward to that day (if it ever comes) but I am also working to be utterly content with where we are, so that it is okay if it never does... (eek!)

Thank you for your sweet words! That being said, please be considerate of feelings. And remember that we all have them.
