Today, I miss thrifting.
What does that say about me?!
I said it out loud to Andrew and then almost cringed. Am I really that person?
It turns out that yes. Yes I am!
I miss the fun of it! Not knowing what you will find, sometimes finding nothing, sometimes just the opposite! I miss trying on vintage clothes that are ridiculous and silly, then falling in love with amazing deals!
I miss picking up random stuff for friends because it made me think of them! I miss my favourite shop (holla MCC!), the smells (seriously?! Am I saying this?!) and the old mennonite women who know me by name!
*sigh*
Those of you who live close to an MCC, can you do me a favour? Can you go, browse, pick up random things, take pictures of hilarious things, be amazed by some of the great deals?
But maybe don't tell me, because I might melt with jealousy!
Ok wait, tell me...
Yeah, tell me.
I will do this! And then post about it!! I haven't been thrifting for awhile but I love any excuse to go! I shall tell Josh it's for you, that justifies it right???
ReplyDeletePs. My mom and I made 8 batches of strawberry jam in the condo today...yes, that's 30lbs of strawberries mixed with the sweet stuff and sealed into good old mason jars (leftovers from Amanda's wedding!!)
PPS. I miss you <3
