Fried Eggs on Toast

Sometimes you can find some very interesting things in thrift shops. Yesterday I was looking through a box of craft and sewing cast-offs at a thrift shop and came across a zip-lock bag filled with two balls of neatly wound cotton crochet thread and these scrubber dish clothes. I'd never seen anything like them before! They're brand new; obviously someones project for awhile that became forgotten over time. They remind me of fried eggs with their bright yellow centers and frilly white crochet on the side. For a mere 50 cents I was able to purchase the entire bag. A thrift store deal, for sure! They are 'too cute' to use yet, but maybe in awhile I'll try one out.
