What a thrift score! An entire box of old rolling pins...just what we need at the preschool. Now when we roll dough or clay there will be enough so every child can have their own roller...never mind that most of the handles are missing...pushing on top of the rolling pin is just as effective. A light sanding, a bit of wood oil rubbed in and they will be good as new!

And purely unrelated...bits of the conversation between my two boys over-heard on our twenty minute drive home from gymnastics last night...they do keep me entertained.
