My friend Marie was having a garage sale at her parents' home. Her mom passed away earlier this year and her dad is moving in with her so they needed to get rid of a lot of things.
I went by to show my support and to help with the sale. She said I could take whatever I liked.
Here is what I brought home with me.
* Milk glass jar
* Painting in a beautiful frame
* Glass bowl with curved edges
* 2 Italian Cookbooks

I collect cookbooks. I thought I had a lot but Marie's mom collected them as well. And since we are I-talian, her mom and I have some great Italian cookbooks. Here are the two that I brought home with me.

Can't wait to try some recipes. And when I do, I will definitely think of her mom!

I bet there are some great recipes in those Italian cookbooks! Nice things, and especially nice that they're from your friend's family.
You were kind and helped someone in need. In return you were blessed with all these great vintage finds. Nice post.
Yummy - I'm a big fan of Italian food!
