My sister and I went to a consignment store yesterday that we didn't know existed.  It really isn't far from my house.  Anyway they specialize in furniture and decor.  When we walked in I told my sister that it wouldn't take long.  Almost everything in there was European, Asian, African, or Modern.  There "was" one lone country/prim item.

This blue crock bowl.  Now you know I couldn't leave it there, and doesn't it look nice with the table runner I got at the ts last week (oh by the way, it's not really a table runner....it was a curtain panel).

I use my crock bowls.  This one made up really good muffins for the kids for breakfast this morning. 

My mom use to use a big ole crock bowl when I was a kid to mix up cookie dough.

And voila, the end result.

Oh Cindy, I love that!  What an awesome find!  Lucky girl!

The color is beautiful - love it!  Your muffins look yummy, too!

That is a very cool blue bowl.  I'm so glad you snatched it up - it probably felt so out of place there. 

Those muffins don't look too bad either.  Dern it - now I have to make some muffins.

Oh, I have never seen a green one!  Must keep my eyes open now.

There was a blue crock bowl at my aunt and uncle's auction.  It got out of my price range from the git go.

At first I thought the runner was a table cloth that had been made into a runner.  A friend of mine bought one at an antique mall around here and that is what it was.  However, this one has a salvadge on both sides.  Then on further inspection I saw where one end has a place for a rod.  I never knew that made curtain panels like that.

I make all sorts of things in my crock bowls:  muffins, breaks, cookies, brownies, biscuits.  I love them.
