Red Cake Tin

See our huge snow!  LOL!  We got enough to coat the grass and cause the schools to close.  By Saturday afternoon, it was mostly melted.  This was taken from the front of our office at work.

As I have said before, every Sunday evening while I am getting things together for the up coming week, I always check Estatesales.net.  There I can find any sales that I may be interested in, in our area.  Week before last I saw this sale that looked very interesting because there was a cool red cake tin shown in the photo and it was only about 2 miles from work.  I could easily find an excuse to be out when this sale opened at 9:00!  Well I got there at 9:30 and the cake tin was  GONE! I was so disappointed.  I glanced around the rest of the stuff and low and behold there stood my sister who can work from home and she was at the sale too.  I asked her what she was buying but she just grinned and said she couldn't say.  Just this and that.

Imagine my surprise on my Birthday when I opened my gift from my sister and found this!
The red cake tin!  I had mentioned I was interested in it when I had talked with her on the phone but never thought she would beat me to the sale and buy it for me!  Isn't it the cutest one you have ever seen?  Red and white with a cart of flowers...

I have the best sister!

Hope you have a wonderful week!
