So Hawk and I loaded up about 1 p.m. yesterday to do a rare, “Just Us Girls Shopping Trip”. It’s rare alright…once a year maybe for a couple hours! Mission…small crocks. So off to town #1 – California. No small crocks, but found a near pint size brown crock moonshine jug from Westin, MO with all the lettering and details in mint condition…$14 bucks. Saw my concrete forming neighbor who found a Leona Williams record in mint condition that he bought for himself. He’s a real antique nut. And Leona Williams was a local gal back in the 50’s or so that went to Nashville and was married to a couple of famous men singers (the Hag for one). Town #2 – Apache Flats. No crocks, but found an old original Tupperware lettuce keeper in mint condition – $5 bucks…guess what my mom is going to get someday! Town #3 – Jefferson City. No crocks at store #1. Told Hawk, “This trip to look for crocks is turning into a crock! We’re going home!” Stopped at my little friends bakery (BK Bakery) and got a mocha latte/no whip, a chocolate chip cookie and a dark chocolate crème puff filled with delish Bavarian crème. It’s not a wonder I felt like a sick calf that didn’t want to come to the bunk by the time I got home!
Last night. Cell phone battery is all pooped out of life. I really don’t want to go back to town today. But, I guess I might have to. There is one more possibility of a crock location…hummm… I need to get these piddly road trips out of my system!
