I almost forgot to mention the cute little flower painting that I won last year

I am not a lucky person when it comes to winning things so I can't believe that I didn't mention this but I won a painting on line, last year.I was in the midst on the painting skates frenzy so with all that and Christmas, My Birthday and New Years, I completely forgot about it till I read Amy's post this morning. The Artist, Amy Tanathorn posted a painting to win on either Facebook or Instagram, I don't remember which, but low and behold I won it. I have it up in my office/studio on the wall with all my artwork and inspirations. So I went out and bought a lottery ticket and it turned out that I was off on 3 numbers by one number only to win 20 million. Oh well, I hadn't been a big winner up till now but I got a nice painting and a free lotto ticket and 10 dollars so I was happy.

End of a collection #Breweriana

For years my hubby and I collected Breweriana items. It started with beer glasses and within a year or two without realizing it, we had over 100 displayed in our A frame window ledge. Then it was coasters from every bar or restaurant we visited. The next level was Beer trays which we eventually sold off. This all started when we were making our own beer even managed to find the old quart size bottles and the cases. As with most collections it grows without even noticing. You know it's out of control when you need to clean over 100 glasses, twice a year. We still pick up glasses, coasters and trays here and there but more for reselling. This is the last bit of the collection that we no longer display and all the coasters have a pin hole as they were mounted in our basement on our barn wood walls. They are in relatively good condition for the next collector to come along and purchase them. Poshmark.ca/closet/bpagani Thank you for checking them out. update this batch which had lots
