Would you like fries with that???

My husband has officially caught the estate sale bug. He's been flipping a few of his purchases at a downtown antique mall, but this one he is planning on keeping.  He came home with a restaurant booth for $25.

Eventually, it will end up in our downstairs family room/rec room.
 For now, the girls are enjoying this dining venue in our sunroom. 

 It's the perfect spot for play-doh, playing restaurant and enjoying meals.

The rest of his purchases this week were of a much smaller scale,  He even found goodies to outfit my Halloween dollhouse. Yippee!

    What a treasure THAT is! Estate sales really get in your blood. I have to exercise great restraint to keep from including them on my schedule any longer. I simply don't need to be bringing things home anymore.:-) xo Nellie

    Wow . . . between the two of you, you find the best things. Love the table, bet you'll all have fun times with it. Reminds me of rock and roll times, listening to the jukebox. (Not dating myself . . . am I?)

    I had to burst out laughing when I saw that booth. That is so fun! You know he'll be sneaking out of school at lunchtime this fall in order to stop by estate sales. Once it gets in your blood it's hard to shake!

    I had to giggle at the title of this post - I worked ar McDonalds as a teenager, including the caboose. That restaurant booth is wonderful! Perfect for all sorts of activities. How fun that he has caught the bug and to flip a few purchases, that's amazing!

    You will get so much use out of that booth, Kim. We had some that came out of a restaurant in our basement at one house and the kids and their friends just loved them. I was always a little sad that we had to leave them behind- xo Diana

    You're very blessed girlfriend! That's something I would have bought, too. I managed fast food restaurants for the first 20 years of my working life.
