Come By & Buy

Looking back on 2007 & what I still need to sell.
The spring plantings on '07 came to a screeching halt with the arrival of Mr Groundhog who truly loves snap peas as much as I do!
I look back, & am actually truly grateful for his arrival ~ I can't imagine how I would have felt to have seen more than what I did see perishing out there. Then came Memorial Day & my cars' engine blowing. Two months later, I gave up on the warranty company & the possibility that I would find another engine, and bought another station wagon.
Then my normal fatigue, which had been building over the last six years, worsened to an overwhelming fatigue that I just couldn't overcome (and still haven't completely ~ I am productive for only a few hours each day now & am still consumed by trying to keep myself safe & fed ~ I truly wanted a nurse for a couple of weeks there). I've tried different doctors & different approaches. At my worst, I couldn't drive; I was bumping into walls & furniture; having difficulty communicating (imagine that!); was eating enough food to feed a 200 pound person & feeling hungry an hour later; constantly standing in the wrong room; couldn't read & comprehend; eventually gave up driving all together; and became basically homebound. I am still astonished at the different diagnoses I was given.
Update: March 21st, 2008 ~ I am slowly regaining my health & am doing my best to recover from a myriad of ailments which all appear to have risen from one disease, and dominoed into various auto-immune diseases. Thank you all who have seen me through this search for answers!
I am thankful for a patient friend & neighbor who has helped me through this ~ by listening, preparing food for me, and driving me to the doctor & to procure aid ~ just to name a few! My father has also been a huge support & has also taken the time to drive me to the lab, store, bank, to pick up business supplies, & on deliveries. Several people whom I have met through my business have aided me ~ extra veggies from a local co-op was a timely gift I received ~ which was brought to me by another friendly neighbor! And some were perfect strangers who just wanted to pay more than for what I was asking! I am truly amazed at how each time I was in need, there was someone there with an outstretched hand. Some days, simply an offer was more than enough indication that everything was going to be just fine. I am truly blessed to have been given this opportunity to heal, to learn more about how certain bodily systems work, to be able to share things I have learned with many people who have also benefitted from my journey (may that continue!!), & to have experienced the true selfless giving of perfect strangers! I was always a believer in: "You are what you eat" ~ but now .... I'm closer to .. like a worshipper. LOL
How does one continue making a living when they are far from living? For almost a year I've been struggling to keep it together. I had a garage sale in August & sold a good amount; boxed up the majority of the remainder & brought it to the mission; but reserved a couple of dozen things & placed them on Craigslist. 45 days later, they automatically delete listings & nothing had sold. I put out an email to local folk & co-ops, friends, & family. One of the reporters who had done a story on me last year came by & purchased some sachets for party gifts at her upcoming baby shower: now there's thinking out of the box. I thank all who have helped to keep food on my table & a roof over my head.

As of April 14th, there are still several things left. If you need any ~ please call : (973) 586- 4584. Thank you!

And here are some of the non-perishables which I'm still looking to sell!
This Hull planter (f42) is in great shape & was my grandmothers & would love a nice home! I would like $12.00 for it. I have seen it on Ebay for $16 with shipping.


Dimensions of pictured:54 x 29 1/2 x 78 1/4
Dimensions of GEM floral case I have: 53.5 x 29.5 x 71.5
After months of trying to sell well below cost, this was just freecylced on Friday ~ may it serve Trish & Anthony well for years to come. Thank you.

Several different milk glass vases, dishes ~ with no chips on them ~ for which I'm looking to get $10 each or, $35.00 for all 4:

This EO Brody typically can be found for 10.99 + shipping on line: Approx: 6.5"H x 5.5"across top x 3.5"Base


This EO Brody vintage footed compote is said to be from 40's & 60's. Found on Ebay for 10.99 + shipping. Approx: 6.5"H x 5.5"across top x 3.5"Base


I have seen this EO Brody candy dish on line for 11.45 + shipping. Approx: 6"H x 4.5"across top x 3.5"Base


Similar to one I have ~ just that the rim is not scalloped/ruffled.
EO Brody Diamond pattern bud vase M-147.Have seen this on EBay for 8.95 + shipping up to 15.50 with shipping.

Approx:8.75"H x 1.75"across top x 2.5"Base


Also have 2 other EO Brody's for which I could not find pictures on line: MJ-52 ~ Measures Approx. 9" H x 5.25"across top x 4"Base. It's elegant with a swirl pattern running in one direction on the base & the opposite direction on the body. A "knot" conjoins the two. I had seen this on Ebay over the summer when pricing for my garage sale & the note inside vase says 14.35 & 13.26. Would like $15.00 for it.


The other EO Brody I have (also pictureless) is an MJ-45 & above Cleveland, Ohio USA on bottom, there's also this number: J-2538. I'm guessing it's rare because I've never seen it on line & have looked several times over the years & have never seen it while out browsing antique stores. It's quite difficult to describe. It stands a little over 8" in the front & then slopes gently upwards towards the back which stands at almost 8.5". The base is like an oval ~ or a softened square, measuring approx. 5.5" across & 4.25" front to back. The opening is like that at the top, measuring approx. 6.25" across & 4.5" front to back.About one inch of the base which has a gentle inward curve has this delicate pattern which is similarly replicated in a 1/2" band about 1/2 inch above this base pattern & again, closer to the top. Like thick stitching. As I have not been able to find this, I would ask for a "fair" market price ....


I have two of these planters ~ similar to picture expect there's a graduated base (1.5") below it. Measures approx. 3.5"H x 9"L x 5.25" deep. On the bottom is impressed: 439 - USA
Believe they are Hulls ~ but not sure. Would like $15.00 for both or 7.50 each.



These are new. They are called barrier bottles & they feature three layers of protection for increased chemical resistance: a nylon layer, an adhesive layer, and a high density polyethylene outer layer. Bottles resist herbicides, insecticides, automotive additives, and the permeation of most organic materials. Cap size is 28 mm. Have 20 each of the 8 oz & 16 oz bottles. I paid 1.33 each for the 8 oz & 1.84 each for the 16 oz = 63.40. Would like $20.00 for them. They are similar to the brown ones pictured below but the caps are black. (bought them to share organic fish emulsion which I'd purchased in a 50 Gallon drum, and there was no interest in this type for fertilizer in my area.)


I also have a great Polder ironing board that's in perfect shape & has a power cord right there & a wire shelf underneath & it folds up really easily. & I paid 79.99 for it. Here's a similar picture (the power cord is hidden below on mine & it doesn't have that extension off to the right in the picture & the legs are different too!).

Replaced original cover ~ foam , too many fumes. Ironing Board Pad & Cover: 100% pure cotton, non-toxic, non-allergenic. Iron without fumes rising from a synthetic pad or cover. Made in our sewing room. Covers are pre-washed and rinsed in baking soda. Free of all fabric finishes. Pad is 100% cotton. Pad & Cover(1 of each) 34.95 (+ shipping from CT) More info at Janice's click here: Janice's
It also comes with a clip-on Polder iron rest ~ which typically sells for 9.99.
That's a $124.93 (+ shipping!) value for only $50.00.
Heck, I'd take $25.00 at this point!

There are other items for which I can't find pictures & will try & locate some in future ~ so, please check back soon to see if anything was added!
I have various pots /planters for sale also ~ if I had a digital camera I would've taken pictures & put them here. Working on getting better, so that I can make those advances with my business that have been put on the back burner for years due to illness. Update: 4/7/08: My thoughtful brother gave me a neg/slide to digital converter for my birthday!! Now to focus this little foggy brain & figure out how to use it: )
Thanks for looking & if you could use any of these items, please call me: 973 - 586 - 4584. If you know someone who collects milkglass or planters, or who would be interested in any of these ~ please pass this along to them. Thanks, Anne
