A round of thrifting and making and doing

Snow pants from the consignment shop.  Several books (mostly on $1 clearance) from the used book store. A $3 bag of books from the library book sale. Party decorations and gift wrap and cake with buttercream frosting, all homemade from materials on hand. Filling up our compost bin with leaves while the fall weather was still nice. Bending over the tops of my broomcorn stems, as the first step in harvesting them. Flipping over a quilt and using it upside-down as a bedspread. Simple things, and all very inexpensive.
