The Scrap of Things

So today turned out to be a very eventful day! I woke up craving 'fun' and that is exactly what today brought!

At work I heard about a store that had tons of barrels filled with random stuff that would be ideal for art projects. As an artist, I basically salivated at the thought of art supplies for really cheap. I couldn't get home fast enough that afternoon to discover what the place was all about. Here is the link http://www.scrapexchange.org/

I can think of so many of my friends back in New York that would love this store. It is perfect for classroom teachers to use this material on projects that the school won't fund...... there is nothing over the cost of like $4..... unless it was brand new or something you really don't need but thought was kinda neat.........

I didn't buy much because I don't have any room in my apartment currently, but when I do, watch out! I ended up getting a few large tubes to hold a few art drawings I have..... I also bought 2 Records because there was a how to create record bowls recipe. For 50 cents I thought it would be a good investment and worth a giggle or two. Overall total was $4.27.

It was a little dirtier than the website made it out to be, but what do you expect from a junk store? Besides, everything was donated so you really can't complain when you are not originally paying for it...... I will definitely go back!

The rest of the day was good. Finally brought Brian to Bandido's, my favorite Mexican Restaurant here in NC. (El Taco Rio in Indiana......) The #6 with shredded Beef is the only way to go!

As we went home, to stay for the night, we stopped to pick up some milk..... and this is what we came across......
It looks like this driver misunderstood how to pick up the groceries he ordered online. I think he took drive-thru a little too literally. Not sure what everyone's condition is, but hoping no one was seriously injured.

It has been a long (but fun) day... sweet dreams.
