I am exhausted. I had a busy weekend. June and I sold at a mom’s club flea market on Saturday morning. I made around $42? and she made slightly more. I didnt have enough things to sell..which actually is a good thing right? That means everything in my house is either functional or I love it and cannot get rid of it. I got rid/sold/donated tons of things when we moved so thats why I didnt have anything to sell..
Sunday, 2 friends and I went early morning to Alameda Flea Market. OH MY GOD..Imagine a giant estate sale all at one… It was overwhelming to say the least. And exhausting. We walked for about 6 hours?
Here are some pictures of the weird and the cute.
Rows of cutlery
A cute setFlower frogs were everywhere
What do you think this is? Condiments in the bowls and a huge bowl of salad in the middle?
Broken doll parts

Rows of Lanterns

I am too lazy to go take a picture of what I bought. I spent $16. $1 on lace, $8 on 20 flower brooches for Ashwina’s party, $5 on glass stirrers for my bar-cart and $2 on a vintage Singer sewing machine home economics class workbook.
I thought some of the prices were really high compared to thrift stores or estate sales. My friends will go again in August and maybe I will tag along as well.
The wooden plate with the glass bowls looks a lot like the typical Indian thali. You know, with all the curries, dals etc in the glass bowls with rice and roti in the center.
Speaking of sewing machines, I have been looking for a sewing machine and found a Pfaff Hobby machine for about $75. Do you know if it is any good?
Me: I do know that Pfaff are a really good brand of sewing machine. I dont know about that model. The price seems reasonable.
The baby doll heads are eerie!
We need to go to the San Jose Flea Market on Berryessa… it’s supposed to be one of the best here.
How amazing that you should find a Singer sewing machine workbook exactly now! And.. errr.. people BUY those doll heads.. they’re extremely freaky, aren’t they?
Me:My friend found it for me. but it was for the exact model type
Oh, I’ve been meaning to ask you, how’s the fitness stuff going? No update in a loooong time!
Me: DONT ASK. Its gone downhill.. downhill…I suck!!
The dolls reminded me of Chucky from that movie..what was it Called Child’s Play??the Broken doll heads might be bought by Salon’s right to display wigs?..Hey Ashwina’s b’day today..Happy B’day to her:)..I remember 5/5 right?
Me: Yup its today. I remember bride of Chucky…
