I thought I would take a picture of my latest find for the hallmark thread so I left it in the computer room only to find it had gone missing the next day:shock:
it was found later that day on the dinner table...
note to self : always drive over your finds with the truck before taking them into the house...

Kiss that goodbye...
Yup. It's not yours anymore.
meh... knock it on the floor and dent the heck out of it.
then scoop everything up and put it back.
I imagine that something else is going to get dented shortly.Quote:

She's just saving it for you so that at some point when you really need it, it will still be there. Tell her Thank You, and keep looking.
My mother in law purposely uses a HEAVY pewter bowl for the dog's water dish...
*** It does store better when it's IMMEDIATELY made into a more compact configuration :)***
He he he
That is a real knee slapper

She's just storing it for you. It does make inexpensive gifts.
I'd find one of stainless and swap it out. You may need to water the dog for a while after the swap.Quote:

Been there, done that. I steal it back after a short while.Quote:

Yup, I've had that happen also.There are still a couple candlestick holders in the house that I KNOW will be noticed if they came up missing. Kiss that goodbye.
Cheaper to go some more and let her have that piece!
