Monday

Hi there Happy Monday!  How was your holiday weekend?  I had a great one! The weekend is always more fun when Bret has an extra day off.  How did we spend it?  I'M NOT EVEN SURE! I think Lowes, the grocers, some basic errand running, probably a lunch out.  Pitiful I can't remember back that many days!

Pat's 4th Brunch
 
Brunch with Pat on Saturday was super fun. The food and the company was great, and of course it's always fun to see Pat's Patriotic Décor.    The weather was kind to us, a nice breeze and not too hot, till later in the day  anyway.

Pats 4th Party
 
Cups, dishes, table linens decorations, flags, plants.. she's got it all, even her ice!! Its stars!  But seriously it's been super fun to be included for a lot of the years  but it  was the last brunch, Pat's hanging up her  apron and calling  it quits.  Sob.  End of an era! Thanks Pat, you're the best!

Bret and I went out in the evening and found a spot to catch the Alameda County Fair fireworks.  First time in a while they've had them, it was fun.  It was good weekend overall!

Now is time for some detective work.  My friend Sarah found these things out flea marketing.  For some reason I'm just crazy to know what they are. I've followed Sarah for years and she's always finding cool things but  this is driving me bonkers.  Maybe someone will recognize them.  So far no one knows for sure but we've got tons of guesses. 
 
Ok, big plans for the week?  I've got stuff to do and I better get busy.  Have a good one friends. xo

  1. They look like clips to secure a tablecloth on a picnic table. Curious aren't they.

  2. We spent the weekend in Chicago at the end of our 12 road trip. Had a ball but ready to fly home from KC tomorrow! And I miss my sewing room so much!

  4. Pam, they look like the clips I used in High School in technical drawing, which kept the graphic paper on the drawing boards.

    They are to hold pinch pleats in place on draperies, then they can be removed for laundering; they were popular years ago when you changed your window treatments according to the season.
