Such a Deal!
There is a wonderful little "anytime tea bar" here in Tampa called "Dishtophia". They have a gazillon different teas to choose from, they make some fabulous quiches, and really yummy scones. I've been there a number of times with my neighbor, Paddy, and I stop in there when I come back from Michaels in south Tampa. I follow their Facebook page, too, and I recently saw that they had 75% off their "vintage dishes". It just so happens that some of their 'vintage' is Mary Engelbreit's stuff. I was not able to get down to see them during the holidays but I made sure to stop by on Saturday after my class at Michaels. The charming little set of bowls was what called my name when I walked in. Full price they were $24.90 for the set but those babies came home with me for $6.66. Yikes! I just realized what the number is....an Omen perhaps??? Not to worry...I'm a happy camper and I'll be keeping my eyes open for new additions to the sale.
