More Shopping with Heather.

I went shopping with Heather on Saturday and found some more things for the house in BHC.  Not quite the same adventure as Mexico, but we still had a fun time, and scored some really cool stuff.

 
First off let me tell you I "love" Tai Pan Trading.  I have only been in there a few times (usually with Gary or Randee') and once with my mom, and I have never bought anything.  It is very overwhelming to walk in and see all of the cool stuff.  I always have an idea in mind when I leave the house but when I get in there the idea is lost,(I get sidetracked very easily).  Usually I don't have a lot of time to spend just looking around at everything.  Heather and I were there for close to 3 hours, it was so nice to just be able to wonder around and look at everything ( some things we went back too and looked at 2 or 3 times).  Anyway I found some cool dishes, a cute little bucket, and some small planters.  I have had my eye one this oval platter for a while, I really like the pattern.  I look at it every time I go in and always decide I don't "need" it, or I don't have anywhere to put it.  (Its too pretty to be put in the cupboard and only used once in a while).  But when I seen the covered dish in the same pattern I knew I had to have it.  No really,  I picked it up and was cuddling it like a baby.  I think Heather thought I had lost my mind.  Then I seen the big serving bowl, I was in heaven.  Lucky for me I have lots of counter space to display all 3 of them in BHC.   I am still pondering going back and getting the rest of the set, plates, bowls, and the cutest square pedestal coffee mugs you have ever seen.










 







 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


I love these little wooden planters. They come in a set of 2 and they will be adorable when I get some flowers in them.

  1. It was an awesome way to spend the afternoon. Only greasy tacos would have made it better.
    I didn't realize we were in there so long...we even bored the stalker.
    Thanks for making the trip back to BHC so quickly so that I could see the items on display.
    And no, I didn't think that you were insane. If you hadn't bought the dish, you would have gotten it for your birthday.
