Some random finds from the public library of Pucisca. Thanks to the generosity of the lovely librarian Zorka Martinic, I will be able to show plenty more finds in the next couple of weeks. Above: Etiquette for Children. The well loved condition of the book suggests that the children of Pucisca take their manners very seriously.
Below: two items from Second Hand Shop in Split. Such shops are a relatively new phenomenon in Croatia, and I was naturally excited to visit my first one. Although I love my finds, I was disappointed that the stock mainly consisted of relatively new clothing, with very little household stuff. My teenage cousins, engrossed in early 90s style, had no such complaints.
Above: this print is rather strange, don't you think?!

I'm so jealous... thank you for sharing some of your finds and holiday pics- it seems you had a fab time. So jealous! xxxx
ps did I tell you about my cousins who got to split from Communist Czech via "holidaying" in Split!
ha! I knew you would like them Sandra, my fellow Slavic woman. :)
I think in retrospect maybe your cousins should have stayed in Czech! The economy in Croatia is in pretty terrible shape.
The food etiquette book is gorgeous, and poster-worthy (I need it in my kitchen). Love the raised pinkies.
