ANOTHER CLEAR MARBLE WITH A BLUE SWIRLEY THANG





 

I am listing my 996+ marbles one last time in an ETSY listing one by one. If they sell profit goes to charity.  .
 Some real gems in these listings.
I collected marbles in the 1980s and 1990s from Virginia and Maryland yard sales, estate sales and auctions.
 And from a great Kentucky Mikes Rock Shop near Cave City on our vacation trips to Missouri during those  years..
 I have no clue of value and mixed them all together so I am selling one by one. If they don't sell in 30 days
 I am throwing them away. If they sell I will be happy people out there wanted them

This one is clear glass with a swirly blue colored thang in it.
I have always loved marbles for their individual beauty and the way mixing them up increases their beauty.

Swamp Thang Miss Billie Wade's Bread & Butter Pickles Redneck Pate Lynn Kessel Sandy Council Anne Davis

 OUR FLORIDA YEARS FILL A GREAT PART OF MY JOY JOURNAL. 

AND TODAY I DIPPED INTO MY RECIPE BOX AND FOUND THIS SOUTH SHORE NEWS & TRIBUNE JULY 30, 2008 BY LYNN KESSEL : RUSKIN-STYLE "GORMAY" COOKING ARTICLE.

I GOT ALL EXCITED AND RUSHED TO AMAZON TO HOPEFULLY FIND A BOOK OF THEIR RECIPES OR A LOCATION TO CONTACT AND GET THEIR PRODUCTS. BUT ALAS.... NOTHING FOUND....  SADLY NO SWAMP THANG...NO MISS BILLIE WADE'S BREAD AND BUTTER PICKLES. ..NOTHING EXCEPT A GOODSON FARMS FACEBOOK PAGE CREATED BY A LYNN KESSEL. NO BOOKS BY THE OWNERS SANDY COUNCIL OR ANNE DAVIS.

WELL THANK GOODNESS I KEPT THIS REDNECK PATE RECIPE.
