Internet-linked Children’s World Cookbook

Fairbanks has turned out to be a great place for yard sales!

Wow, that is awesome. It’s been slim pickins here, ’cause everybody’s suddenly thrifty. We did pick up Woody Guthrie’s Twenty Grown Big Songs, excitingly, and a glow-in-the-dark skeleton shirt.

For some reason I have not been making it to many garage sales this summer. You have found some great things.

Do they call them yard sales or garage sales up there? We always had garage sales in CO and now down south they’re called yard sales. My theory is it has to do with the weather and pleasantness thereof.

Oooh! Excellent point, Jennifer! I do believe most of them were called garage sales. A few were moving sales.

I think that I need to start visiting some yard sales. Actually, I am still trying to make more space in our house, so I will satisfy myself by sharing in your joy.

I don’t get to yard sales very often. It doesn’t go well with dh’s schedule. Not to mention you wouldn’t be able to find deals like those here. You might as well go to a store to buy the clothes..it would cost about the same.
