Something Old with Something New

I had a doctor’s appointment yesterday.

Since I was already having to leave the house and head to Lenoir City - I decided to leave a little early - and hit one my favorite little trinket shops that’s planted on the way.






















I found this little gem.

I thought - “ Wouldn’t it be cool to use this for the spices I use more than others ! “

I headed to Wally World after finishing up at the clinic.  I was supposed to pick up a new prescription.  And I decided to go hunting for something I could use for spice jars - that would fit inside my newfound gem.


I walked out the doors after refusing to accept the prescription.  To pay $100.00 every month for a prescription - to me - is no different than paying another $100.00 per month for the health insurance.


" Dear Blue Cross/Blue Shield and Medco My husband and I pay TOO MUCH ALREADY for your so-called ' Coverage ' as you are so confused to continue calling what is nothing more than - monetary rape ! "



















But I did not walk out empty-handed.  I came across this 10oz. Emma Jar.





















I guessed right!  Six fit just fine!

Now I have to head to Turkey Creek - Hobby Lobby in particular.

I want to get an Etching Kit and make my own stencils with the names of the spices - to etch onto the lids and one side of the jars.

Anything for an excuse to go slobbering all around Hobby Lobby for hours - while swearing up and down that my ATM card is burning a hole in my purse!

I used to do some etching, was kinda fun. Haven't for years though. Haven't been to hobby lobby for a while now...try to avoid it, cause I can always find something I want, and haven't had any money I could spend in there. *giggle*
