VINTAGE THINGIE THURSDAY

I was visiting the sistas and they are participating in this "share something old" meme, mimi or yo mama.

So I decided to head on over to Confessions of an Apron Queen and add my name to the list and show something old. No, it's not a body part, but that could work in a pinch.

Since Thursday is almost over, I had to rush...but that doesn't mean I don't have a real gem for you! It's a very very old cast iron scale that weighs in Stones. Here's what it says about stones v. pounds. Like I can really figure that out? I gave up on metric a long time ago, lets not get into stones, rocks, and boulders.


I found this in an antique shop in Julian CA back in 1983. I paid a good price, but I still love it,even though it weighs a ton.

Don't forget to check in tomorrow, afternoon. I have some medical stuff to tell you about a very special family member.

FOR THE LOVE OF COLON

Today is a busy day. Today is the day I pay tribute to the Colon, and this is the Colon Family Crest.

But my colon doesn't have a crest....but it's clean as a whistle and free of anything.

My doctor wants to take a routine peek and honestly? He seems gleeful when he says that. This will be the "once over" type of peek, not like the one I had last year where you have to be sedated because they take a throat culture a thorough look around.

So, because I had to fast and couldn't get scheduled until noon, I haven't had anything except one cup of black coffee since six o'clock last night.

You guys all enjoy your morning bagels, donuts and rich danish pastries.....yeah, go ahead, eat them in front of me. Slab on that butter and cream cheese, see if I care.

Later!!
