Kitsch for fun

Emporiums with; dusty uneven carpets and aisles of junk, plastic, material, metal and all manner of cheap who knows what to do with stuff? Yesterday’s visit to the thriving metropolis of Tauranga city was fun. First I had a list of needs. (I love it when I am intent on choosing something, picking it up, setting it down etc. – then, a crowd gathers and all of a sudden they need the same thing!) I managed to secure the sale bargains, I wanted, make three trips to the car, hauling large,red dotted bags with nuisance sticky taped strips saying,”Sold”, on their sides, up three floors in the adjacent car park building.


 After that, I went to the places of ‘like to haves’, such as the Emporium and a favourite, Asian, ‘The Importer’, store in Grey Street. Having a lucky Fairy Godmother on duty, helped; both shops had colour co-ordinated sale items, I could use, to decorate the dining room with themed Asian or Curry Lunch adornments. I should have taken a photo of Roger looking at my treasures. His face said it all.
