You and Roger are so good together and I get such joy seeing you interact with each other. Your sense of humor gives me quite a few giggles. Thank you for sharing your adventures.😊

I love when you “interview” Roger. He’s a man of few words, but when you ask him questions we immediately see how incredibly knowledgeable he is on many topics. And I also love how you both have your strong areas, but constantly learning from each other and growing.

Hi there. Those are battery operated candles. They usually take 2 AA batteries. Twist the bottom off from the base and insert. Some of these have timers built in and will stay on up to 8 hours. Enjoy watching you and Roger!

I found a 1950s steiff bear at the bins last year. Not all have the ear tag. They didn’t use metal during war time is what I learned. There is another brand of bear that is similar to steiff. I would google lens him and do some research to find out exactly what he is. Great find! Most people probably think he is just an old stuffed animal and passed him by! FYI- I sold mine for $220 in 3 days!

I love the bins! I'm lucky to have one where people are respectful and don't push you or invade your space too much! Otherwise I think I'd be very overwhelmed. Headphones help too! We all line our carts down the middle so everyone has space. But I know one Goodwill Outlet (another one) around here- anything goes and it's just a madhouse. Not to mention that one starts wheeling away the bins so early you can't really sort!

The oval wood plaque is a copy of a Renoir called “Child in White”. I have one but it’s rectangular in a frame. I’ve had it since the early 60’s. Not sure where it came from. I know it wasn’t new when my mom hung it for me in my room.

Just sitting here watching this older video and you pick up a piece of glass that is actually the base of a mid-century glass punch bowl. You should pick those up because they always go fast and I can get more for the base then I can get for the punch bowl. I usually get around $20 for them and they're almost always in really good shape I sell a lot of glass so I thought you might like that tip. And don't forget you can take a picture of that with the lens app and it will tell you what it is and where they're listed and how much they're selling for. I Love My Lens app. It's so easy to use you won't believe it

From living on The Gulf Coast I’m thinking the very first piece of art you touched was a day The Blue Angels flew. I couldn’t see the planes well enough to be certain. They have a couple of shows a year in the Pensacola area at the beach. It’s very, very popular. On another note! Feed the Children also had a Target collab a good many years ago. I don’t remember seeing the bag you found at Target. Either way the proceeds went to the children. ❤
