Remind me not to do This next year...

A 'Premier' Arts and Crafts Event.

I do not lie. Premier.


Hundreds of people walking sloooooowly.

I picked the wrong week to quit huffing Cinnamon Rosehips.

We can get you into this beauty for a buck-125.

Or $225 for this 'premier' craft?

And, if you haven't had enough, hang your kid from a contraption for $5. Probably the best possible $5 you could spend today.

So, what is it like to spend a few hours at the Brick Street Market Day? Let me just say this, it is not for men. Unless of course you need to stock up on Cinnamon Rosehips , bracelets made out of bent spoons, painted antique saw blades, and teapots turned into birdhouses. Who on earth buys a $125 teapot birdhouse? Honestly, someone tell me. I can see paying $5 to hang your kid for awhile......

Still Alive, part 2

Saturday night I had a hunk of my cheese with my steak. This is STRONG stuff.

It is hard to believe that this started in January. I have now taken the cheese out of the 'cave', vacuum packed, and refrigerated it.

New Camera

We got a new camera for Mother's Day...

Too Bleu?

Whooh! You should see my shoes.

90 Day old Bleu 'Stilton'. I think that I added too much bleu too soon... Funkiest and strongest cheese I have ever eaten. I ate it on Saturday, still alive and kicking on Wednesday.

Morels

Is there anything better than morels?

T-bone and I found a few beauties. YUM!

Dos Breckies

I went to lunch with a couple of friends on Thursday at one of my favorite places, BBI Cafe. It is not a chain restaurant and everything that they make is yummy.

Mike likes breakfast for lunch, so he had 2. 4 eggs, 6 bacon, 4 toast, 1 Coke. "Dos Breckies!"

New Old Contrivances

Here goes a shot at an old new idea. I am completely unhappy with every tomato cage that I have ever tried. Last winter I checked out a book from the library, "Homemade Contrivances and How to Make Them."

Evidently in 1850's this is how they made tomato trellises. I made one today, I'll probably make 3 or 4 different design changes and make a few more. Maybe I'll make a smaller version for the peppers.

Stay tuned.
