Nancy's Things

     I'm a big fan of  https://freecycle.org/   It just makes a lot of sense to recycle, reuse, and repurpose. 
     In March or April 2019, I posted a request for stainless steel pots that I could dedicate to making candles and campfire starters.  The lady who responded to my post was cleaning out her mother's home since her mother had relocated to assisted living.  She would set aside the pots, and she asked if I had any other requests.  I decided I would not be shy.  I asked for an assortment of craft related items.
     Sunday, July 14th was the big day when I finally met Lisa who presented me with two big, plastic bins and a grocery bag full of her mother's things - Nancy's things.  There were pots, lids, big spoons, muffin pans, cooling racks, stainless steel bowls, measuring spoons, and knitting needles.  The grocery bag was full of dozens of crochet pattern books.  Later, I sorted out some things that I would not use.  Lisa told me I could re-post on freecycle or donate the items, so I added them to a pile that I plan to take to the Virtua Thrift Store.  There were some well used 1950s era aluminum pots that I decided to take to Americycle for proper recycling.  I got $1.62 that I put in the yarn kitty.  The crochet pattern books will first be offered to the ladies at the crochet guild.  If they cannot use them, I will donate them to the Friends of the Burlington County Library for the next book sale.
     Thanks, Nancy.  I hope that my plans for your things will do some good.
