Hello and welcome to Friend Promotion Friday!
Self-promotion may be hard and awkward, but friend promotion is easy and fun.
It is with great confidence and joy that I recommend my friend Stephanie Biagioni and her vintage shop Fresh to Death Vintage.
Imagine Jerry and Elaine had a baby and raised her on Salt n Pepa videos - that would be Stephanie. She is hilarious and whip smart and has excellent taste in clothing and housewares and music.
Go Trailer, Go First Class vintage patch, anyone?
Future Harley Rider Maternity tee?
Stephanie cares and hustles and will do everything possible to ensure customer satisfaction. She will probably wrap your purchase in some cute vintage thing and may even put surprises in the box.
Check out her reviews on Etsy: Fresh to Death Vintage reviews.
Check her out all over the interwebs:
Etsy shop: Fresh to Death Vintage
Wanelo shop: Fresh to Death Vintage
Instagram: Fresh to Death Vintage
Pinterest: Fresh to Death Vintage
Check her out in a couple of SHV original What the Flock t-shirts (which she commissioned):
I love peanut butter.
And garbage!
I told you she was cool! Now head over to her shop and buy something(s) equally cool!
Please keep in mind the vast majority of these friends are hustling to pay for their own health insurance. Supporting their businesses helps in many far-reaching positive ways!
Ellohay, Wednesday! Ellohay, WTF!
I was introduced to a new church thrift store last week and it was full of treasures, inside and out.
The doll is called Precious Expressions.
I have a different definition of precious.
Hey look, it's Pouty Patty!
Tongue out Tuesday magnet.
What is happening here? Diary? Guest book?
Anybody need a maternity stretch panel?
Last but not least, as pointed out to me by my friend SuperMama, Darrin's Coconut Ass - a real life album by Goldfinger.
As with all wtf wednesdays, there are no answers, only questions leading to more questions.

New WTF this week:
Hello and welcome to Friend Promotion Friday!
Self-promotion may be hard and awkward, but friend promotion is easy and fun.
My friend Justin Kaiser does a fantastic job with indoor and outdoor painting at Up the Ladder Painting and Pressure Washing Co.
After 4 years of dog claws and puddles, you could say our deck needed major attention.
Nacho has been gone for 2 years now and look how bad it was already back then.
Justin is an excellent communicator who is honest, direct, and very reasonable about pricing and time.
We had some storms the first few days and he was able to continue sanding and painting through the rain by creating an ingenious "tarp city."
Our deck was particularly challenging as its cracks were filled with pounds of dog fur. Justin removed all of this!
After a ton of sanding, two coats of paint, and a massive ladder and tarp operation, here is Justin applying the finishing touches.
It looks brand new, we can't believe it. Our chipped, buckled, mildewy deck feels smooth and looks fantastic - our expectations were greatly exceeded!
Justin is also very friendly and tidy and wonderful with pets. If you are in the Asheville area and have a deck or house that needs some freshening, call Justin at Up the Ladder Painting and Power Washing!

Halló Wednesday! Halló WTF!
Let's begin with a beer drinking bear doll sent in by my friend Beth H. who was thrifting last week in my old stomping grounds on Main Street, Ventura, California.
Sometimes you drink with the bear, and sometimes, well, the bear drinks with you.
More about Jesus.
I know where I'm going, and it appears to be an abandoned beaver den.
Last but not least, who let the Womenfolk out of the kitchen?

New WTF this week:
Hello and welcome to Second edition of Friend Promotion Friday!
Self-promotion may be hard and awkward, but friend promotion is easy and fun.
My friend Allison Griswold sells vintage clothing, toys, and paper ephemera on Etsy at Robin Egg Surprise.
It's easy to recommend Allison's shop because I have known her for several years and she is extremely kind and thoughtful, and will work with any customer before or after the sale to make sure they are happy.
She is based in Indiana, has a great eye for vintage, and finds some wonderfully fun things.
How cute is this toddler fire chief t-shirt?
She has an amazing collection of (cheap) old photos.
Check out her gushing reviews from customers. Nothing but 5 stars all day long!
I do not have any photos of Allison in my t-shirts, but her 4 year old son wears t-shirts and hoodies from me, and I do have a photo of her with Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings after she gave them a bunch of vintage clothing, which they loved and immediately wore on stage for the rest of the tour.
So if you like vintage things, head on over to Robin Egg Surprise on Etsy and buy something, or buy two things from Allison, you will not be disappointed!
She also has a twitter if you're into that: Robin Egg Surprise twitter.
Guten tag, Wednesday! Guten tag, WTF!
Here we have lunchtime at the ATM.
The back of this trailer has a laminated photo of the back of this trailer. Also do not shoot the landscaper or landscaping equipment.
Dance to the beat.
Remember when we played that game of football and couldn't stop laughing? (ask the shoulder-sitting models on the board game "LifeStories").
Here's a book - Dogs n Stuff.
Filled with nothing but dogs and stuff - no text, no explanations, just a terrier poking through a bathing suit.
A piglet in each arm and creepy human fingers.
Last but not least, a cat with a massive head.

New WTF this week:
Hello and welcome to the inaugural edition of Friend Promotion Friday!
Self-promotion may be hard and awkward, but friend promotion is easy and fun.
The first friend(s) I'd like to promote are Asheville bankruptcy lawyer - WNC Debt Law - The Law Offices of Kevin J Radey.
If you are in Western North Carolina and are having trouble paying your bills, WNC Debt Law can help.
Kevin Radey has been my live-in boyfriend and joint tenant with right of survivorship for the past 8 years, and I can guarantee there is nobody out there more dedicated to protecting the rights of consumer debtors in the face of big banks. The majority of his clients find themselves in his office after medical bills, job loss, and divorce. He is hell bent on making sure debtors are treated fairly. Kevin has a huge heart, and is compassionate and relentless in his pursuit of achieving the best results for his clients. He works with bankruptcy and student loan cases.
Michelle Rogers is Kevin's assistant, and she has been a dear, dear friend to me for the past 9 years. She is extremely positive and friendly and and excellent communicator who helps clients collect their documents and makes sure their cases run smoothly.
You don't have to take it from me, check out their Google reviews. Keep in mind how uncomfortable it might be for clients to have their public Google accounts associated with a personal bankruptcy, and see how intent they are on expressing gratitude anyway.
I am going to try to put photos in these Friend Promotion Friday posts of the friends wearing Skippy Haha Vintage t-shirts. Luckily, Kevin wears nothing but SHV t-shirts, and Michelle did some modeling for me back in the day.
I sincerely hope nobody reading this needs their services, but if you do, there is no better office to call.
Hello Wednesday! Hello WTF!
Hello sidewalk sausage sticker.
Sign in front of departures at the Detroit airport. What does it mean?
Tim, Tim, Tim....really screwed up this time...had to resort to the Community Communicator. I applaud the effort.
I saw this on the interwebs, and the dog has a point.
I also have 2 announcements: 1. I am going to start another weekly blog feature this week: Friend Promotion Friday - because self promotion is sucky and awkward, but friend promotion is fun; and 2. skippyhaha.com is officially under construction - and should emerge very shortly in a MUCH simpler format with products linked automatically to my Etsy shop. Thanks for your support and patience, in the mean time, SHV Etsy is the same as ever.

New WTF this week:
Hi Wednesday! Hi WTF!
Let's get some pesky dolls out of the way.
Believe, pur, doll.
The newscaster queen of Christmas.
Dolls in their boxes are scarier than dolls out of their boxes.
Help, I'm stuck!
Chi-chi-chi-chihuahua!
Coffee cup brimming with gilded teddy bears.
The horse is not feeling it, the knight's head is scrunched entirely down on his neck, and WTF is in his hand?
I love dogs. I could not love dogs any more than I do. Even I would not put this in my house to show my love of dogs.
Loss of control kit, with diaper inside, and plastic hammer on side to break cellophane.
Come on and zoom!
Pheobe is about to rock herself away to the bottom of that cliff.
Last but not least, hyper evil hyperextended arm doll!
