A Paisley Pink Mug Shot

Le dump is not a place you go expecting to find matched pairs of Chippendale chairs, or coordinating/ matching/ harmonizing anything. Don't expect it, but keep your eye out for it anyway, like cashmere sweaters at the thrift store without stains or holes, or purple giraffes speaking French, just because you've never seen it doesn't mean they don't exist!  Magic does happen in Cambridge, which is how I felt when I came across a set of matching mugs this fall.

A mug - pretty paisley, but pretty happens...


A pretty pair? well, now, this is something eh?

[[Digs deeper into box, through assorted kitchen supplies, mumbles to self....]]


Three!  Wow, what else is in this box?


Four! Hmm, maybe time to buy lottery tix?















Thank you to the lady who dropped off that big cardboard box of kitchen goods.  Maybe you were moving, or just cleaning out excess gadgetry, but your kitchen discards are my paisley-print treasure. Also, hot chocolate tastes good in them, I can attest to that as of last night.

Happy freestyling!
