Thrift Store Find

Today, we hit a thrift store (looking for a crib since we still don't have one for Adèle so she's camping out in the Pack 'n Play) and I didn't find what I was looking for at all.  But I did find this:

And now you are probably saying "What is that?!"

Anyone play handbells?  Basically, it's a set of pitched plastic pipes that you can hit on anything to produce a sound.  They're called Boomwackers.


As some of you know, I used to be a professional musician.  Great job.  No benefits.  Not a steady paycheck.  I always wanted a set of these but this C to C set was $25 and I wasn't willing to shell out that much money for them (I really didn't have that much extra anyway).  I got this set for $1.31.  You can't beat that!

I think Zoé and I can have some fun with these.  She loves her xylophone and my piano.
