Magnets In Mail Order Catalog

Whenever Mom gets a mail-order catalog, I look through it for decorative magnets.  Sometimes there aren't any at all, sometimes there are, but they aren't the kind I collect, and sometimes I already have them.

Today, however, Mom got one of those catalogs, and it had a set a set of magnets that I don't have, and is the kind I collect.  In fact, they are just about the darlingest magnets I've ever seen.

Mom is going to place the order tomorrow.

And I love the fact that I found them in a catalog!
