You probably know by now that I love yard sales, and of course I recognize that it's almost a must-do on spring and summer weekends in York County.
So this morning, we loaded the whole family into the car and headed over to some neighborhoods in Manchester Township for a couple of community yard sales.
Best find went to my mom, who got a brand-new summer purse for $2. Daughter Sarah got a 50-cent T-shirt with a panda on it from the Washington Zoo. Hubby got a book from a "free" box. Lunch, for my mom and me, was a yummy, freshly grilled hot dog (75 cents!) from one yard-saler.
And guess what I got? Something for the blog!
It's "A Taste of Pennsylvnia Recipe Book" published by the Pennsylvania Dept. of Agriculture and it only cost a quarter!
Be on the lookout for recipes from it in the coming days, including some more great ways to use local fresh fruit. (Don't forget to vote for your favorite local fruit in the post before this one!)
Anyone else have good yard-sale finds or news of coming sales to report? Comment and let me know!
You got ripped off on that recipe book. I picked one up free last Friday at the Living Festival or whatever it was called at the fairgrounds. After looking thru it when I got home I trashed it with the reyclables. Typical test-kitchen recipes and not real food! If you find it useful then it was a $.25 well spent.
