      .. and again that one last item, nagging me !The bumbleebee buzzing around and I am not able to grab it :P ;)

Yay! Thx, Nathan :). And, welcome! Adding your items to the list.
Kelly, lol, now THAT is coincidence!
      I'm still working on this:-). I just haven't found any for a bit.The book I'm reading now had a character drop a coffee cup on the floor, and then the character notices the coffee cup is UNBROKEN! I really thought I could cross off broken coffee cup for a second there;-).
      Thanks for the tip, Frances, now I just need to find that book somewhere first :D. (Aaaand it's done, now I just should get myself to the library someday).
    
      Finally took the time to do some updating! Now I am just missing treasure, fried chicken and a paintbrush.
    
      Finally found a quilt, so that leaves me with scaffolding, which has proved to be the most difficult to find (along with a baseball from board number 1, which is the last one for me in that).

Paintbrush#1..."
Thanks!
      And I finished it! Finally found scaffolding, which was the last item on my list. Board 1 is still missing baseball and I doubt I'll find it before the year ends.

      Yeah Connie and Maarit! I'm still looking for a buckler and a saxophone. I think on board 1 I need a motorcycle ride.I can't wait to do another one. Maybe a Christmas one would be cool!
      I'm still missing four and probably won't find them all before the end of the year, but I came across fried chicken today on a bus to Scranton in the novel Middlesex.
