    These two items arrived this week. (1) from eBulb.com (2) from Ebay. These photos are not the actual sizes. The light bulbs are for a vintage under cabinet light over my kitchen sink. The vintage door handle lock set is a replacement for my front screen door which is wood.

    Some time in my life there was a door with a sliding button lock on it like that. :cool: Can't remember where. I like old hardware. When I first bought this house I bought some vintage white porcelain door knobs like these, through eBay, to replace some cheap new ones. They have more "character."

    I didn't want to get a new door when it was only the handle that needed replacing.

    Now I've gone and done it!
    Whatever you do, don't go to Temu.com!
    It is full of chochkies and worthless crap that is really cheap.
    I got some great cow and chicken stuff, a camping urinal for women, and all sorts of crap.
    What worries me is they had my new CC# on file already.
    Is that technology advancement. Or did hubby go there already.:eek:

    I love the fragrance of sandalwood. I got a whiff of it at a younger age and swore I was going to get me some when I got older. Only found incense and I'm okay with that.

    Latest online purchase was 3 more USA made swim hipster bikini bottoms from Popina. I use them as underwear and have for years. They don't hold moisture like cotton and breath well and easy to wash and dry and if you want to take a dip, just drop the outer garment and go for it. They have full back coverage which is hard to find these days in hipster bikini bottoms.

    Also new blades for my electric leg shaver.

    Soon more veggie based protein shakes from Costco.
