Recommendation: COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO

I am so excited because I have discovered that I can download audio books from the library onto my computer. This is especially important because I can get some reading done while I am sewing. SCORE!!! The last book that I read/listened to was the Count of Monte Cristo which sadly I had never read before. It is a super long book but exceptionally good so read it anyways. It has love, revenge, murder, and hidden treasure. What more could you ask for? It is definitely now on my list of favorite books of all time.

As a side note, I have to say that for no reason are you to watch the movie that they made a few years ago.....because it is awful. I kept waiting for something (other the character names) to have come from the book. I waited in vain. Skip the movie and read the book.

Crafty Wonderland

Today from 11-4 I will have a booth at Crafty Wonderland at the Doug Fir. Come and check out some of the fabulous things being created here in town.

I am also excited to announce that I will be selling a new set. The set is based on the wonderful cookies that can be found at a great local bakery in town, Two Tarts Bakery. Here is a sneak peek. More details about the set and bakery will be posted soon.

Pickle Things now at Black Wagon!!!!!

I am very excited to report that my felt food is now being sold at Black Wagon. YIPPPPPY!!!!! Black Wagon is a super cute store on N Mississippi Ave that carries cute clothes and toys for kids. They also have a really great online store for all of you out of town folks. If you check out the new arrivals, you can see my food.

They are having their 3rd Anniversary party tonight. If you have a chance go check it out. Buy some felt food or at least talk it up loudly.

Kittens are so cute. It is down right ridiculous.

I am very excited because my sister just adopted the cutest kitten ever. Admittedly, most kittens are extremely cute but I think that Lindsay's new kitten is a contender. Her name is Lucile but I have already given her the nickname Little Luce.




She had a little cold after she came home from the shelter so I hope that she is feeling better. I felt bad for her but I could not help thinking that her little sneezes were so cute. Maybe this nap on my lap did her some good.

Reminder - Craft-in Fair Today!!!!

Don't forgot to come check out my stuff and all the other vendors today!!!!

Craft-In Craft Show

This Saturday I am going to be part of a craft fair at a drive-in. I love drive-ins so this makes me very happy. It is from 10-4 on Saturday August 8th. There are over 35 different craft vendors with all kinds of different wares. Plus it looks like the temperature might actually be comfortable (Thank goodness!) I have never done a craft fair outside of Portland so I am hoping that there is a good turn out. If you have nothing to do, you should check it out. After you shop, you could stick around and watch a couple movies. That is what I call a good day.
