It was such a gorgeous day in Cambridge today– I just had to go out for a walk! The weather wasn’t that warm, but it was bright, sunny, and beautiful! Spring is coming! :mrgreen:

On my walk through Harvard Square, I stumbled about this Thrift Shop sign: 

I grew-up shopping in thrift stores and consignments shops, so even now, many years later, they still have a special place in my heart. Plus, you never know what you are going to find! I love exploring these little shops, especially for funky, one-of-a-kind dishes, home goods, and accessories. 

I followed the sign’s arrow down this cute little street: 

Then I arrived at this second sign: 

And just a few seconds later, I arrived at the front door of the Thrift Shop:

Inside the shop was all sorts of treasures: baskets, dishes, table linens, books, videos, clothing, shoes, handbags, small appliances, craft supplies, etc. This tiny Thrift Store had just about everything you could think of! 

After purusing the store for about 20 minutes, I left with a $0.50 bud vase. Sweet! 😀

Dinner

Mal and I tagged-teamed dinner tonight: he cooked paninis while I made salads. Mal called himself the “Panini Prince” while I was the “Sultan of Salad.” (He is such a nerd sometimes! 😉 )

To the salad greens, I added grape tomatoes, carrot sticks, and sliced strawberries. 

I topped my salad with balsamic vinegar. I love salad greens, strawberries, and balsamic vinegar together. It’s such a delicious combo of flavors! 

Mr. Mal prepared mozzarella, tomato, and garlic paninis on sliced, olive oil-brushed French bread for the two of us. 

Mal really loaded on the cheese tonight! 

Check out my new bud vase! Perfect for a single daffodil! :mrgreen:
