I think there's cosmic divinity mixed in with my grandparent's love hovering over all thrift stores because I magically find everything I need at them. What eventually became my Brave Combo polka-dress was one of my first finds 26 years ago! I found my black-and-white polka-dotted cow dress the day before my big painting show, for three dollars! I have even found amazing shoes that fit, and that never happens even at a regular store.
My latest craze is finding broccoli, apples, eggplants, etc. in the inexpensive less-than-perfect section of the produce aisle. It's a great discovery because you don't need perfect-looking produce when you're making applesauce or roasting eggplants or turning things into soup.
