You can find me yakking more at This Eclectic Life. I talk about anything that comes into my head at 4:30 in the morning. You'll find me saying "y'all" a lot, because I'm from Texas, but I don't brag too much about it.
It's amazing what $1.00 will buy. Only at a yard sale could I find something as fun as this little vintage makeup case for so little money!
The tag says, "Bentony." I don't know if that is a "good" brand, but I love the hasp on it. It's in perfect condition, too!
Best of all: it's just in time for an overnight roadtrip. Gotta love it.

I know that you envy me my high-heeled spice rack. You wouldn't be the first. It was a find from the bottom of a pile at an antique store, and there isn't another one like it around. I'm sure it was once used in some kind of retail display, but now it works perfectly for my kitchen spices.
Recently, I made myself toss the old spices. I had some that I would swear I bought when Jimmy Carter was President. However, there is one spice on my rack that I use almost daily. I can't keep it in stock around here. It's called "Coast To Coast All-In-1" and is by Urban Accents. I get mine at the local World Market.
Sprinkled on vegetables, a salad, or used to season chicken or pork, it is delicious. I use it especially on fish, because I do not like to eat fish! I have to gag it down! However, I've found that if I coat tilapia with this spice I don't even know it is fish!
[Note: Usually I drench it in marinara sauce and wash it down with a Negro Modelo, so you might not want to trust my judgment.]
