Cheap Thrill - Saturday morning restoration project.

Ever since I got my 1950's appliances, I have wanted a Vintage Cosco kitchen cart. Problem is Cosco carts from the 1950's in good shape are rare and expensive. I tried for months to find one and just could not find one I could afford that fit in my kitchen.

A couple weeks ago, I finally found one on EBay that is the shape I wanted. It was only $38.99 plus shipping versus the $200.00 they normally sell for in good condition. Of course, it had a good bit of rust and wear. Structurally it was in good shape.

I spent Saturday morning before class sanding and refinishing the enamel. The paint was only $3.50 since I used Michael's coupons to purchase it.

Check out the results! It felt so good to do something artistic....

Some wonderful cakes from Orangeburg Technical College...

Hello Everyone,

I thought I would share some of the lovely cakes they are making in cake class at Orangeburg Tech. in St. Matthews. I used to teach this class and my student, Henrietta W. took over the teaching duties when I was unable to teach any more due to cancer. I am so proud of her and her students, they are doing amazing work!!!
