I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving and are enjoying some fabulous Cyber Monday sales. As many of you know, I will be closing my shop, Finder Not Keeper, next month, and it feels so good to be shopping today rather than worrying about the shop. I will continue to source and sell vintage finds, and they will be available locally at Past Basket and to my style clients. If you need a little break from surfing the web for deals today, check out my favorite links from around the web this week…

• This essay is longish but excellent: "The Story I Can't Write About My Family." 
  

• The TSA Instagram account is actually pretty funny. (Apparently, canned pumpkin cannot be carried on.) 
  

• Emily Henderson's favorite Black Friday sales here. 
  

• Super funny! Moms falling for the "how to cook a turkey in the microwave" prank. 
  

• Another laugh of the week, especially if you're a teacher.
  

• What do you think of this farmhouse renovation? Hubbie dislikes, I'm a little intrigued.
  

• These lucite trees would be pretty on a white mantel. I'd do all pale pink. 
  

• Thirty years of writing to Dear Abby and this is what America worries about. 
  

• Antiques of the Week: A friend is privately selling a set like this. Contact me if you're interested.
