Ok but I am also very disappointed that you did not grab those Dale Earnhardt car earrings when you had the chance. We have a thrifted Dale mug that is Ian's prized possession. The handle on it was actually shattered after one of us dropped it (can't remember who), and Ian superglued it back together. Our other prized possession was a Shrek glass that was released by McDonald's to promote Shrek 4 back in 2010, but I learned THIS YEAR via TIKTOK that there has been a recall on those cups for over a decade, since the paint contains toxic levels of cadmium. We sadly bid (bade?) farewell to that cup a few months ago, but did we really need to when the brain damage has likely already set in for us both? Idk. Anyways, happy antique hunting and I hope you are loving your new home!!!

RIP Shrek glass! I have old McDonald’s collectible glasses and refuse to get rid of them--Grimace is just too beautiful and rare. I’m glad you two repaired the Dale mug and he lives on. I’ll have to snag the earrings if they’re there when I go back and we can have a raise hell, praise Dale party someday!
