Manic Sunday

I've been away. Not really away like on an honest to goodness vacation but away from this blog thing. Trying to get ready for our upcoming craft shows of which there are 9 and counting. In addition to trying to sell the house and buy a new one....today was a busy day with a last minute showing. Getting a house tip top is not easy with two little girls running around pulling out everything as soon as I've tucked it away.
My day of rest included driving around to scope out new potential habitation locations, hitting the grocery store, apple picking (which was fun of course!), hay ride, and dinner (which consisted of butternut squash lasagna and apple crisp for dessert, yum), insane amount of dirty dishes washed after that much cooking/baking, bathed the girls, story, bed. I now feel like I could fall over from exhaustion and will be retiring as soon as I hit "publish". Zzzzzzzzzzzzz








...and yes, Ruby is wearing a tutu. She wears it everywhere including to bed. Isn't there a saying about picking your battles? I choose to let her win this one daily.

Craft Show Millionaire

Yesterday we particpated in the St John's Bazaar in Townsend, MA which ended up being a bit of a bust. The way that the bazaar was set up the crafters (of which there were only FIVE! WTH?) ended up waaaayyy in the back and got very little traffic. The comment "I didn't even know there were crafters here" was made more than once. A discouraging way to start the season but we are booked pretty solid through the holidays and they can't all be that poorly planned!!
A few photos from the day~

Phew!

The sewing is done for tomorrow, well it's never actually DONE, but I feel prepared for the show now! Today will be filled with taking inventory, picking up the tent and tables and pricing items. Busy mama! I am excited for this season to get underway! Feels like Christmas!

Busy Bee

I have been busily sewing getting ready for our first craft show of this season! This Saturday Sew Yummy will be at the St John's Bazaar in Townsend, MA. Can't wait! I will try to remember to take and post pics!! In the meantime, I will be away from this for a bit....

Keep on Rockin'

Ru is sporting a new Mix Tape Barrette I made this morning. I freakin' love it but can't tell yet if it is something I will try to sell. I made one big mix tape for a bodysuit or t-shirt but my lazy ass has yet to go to the store and pick up said items to applique away....

SOLD!

...and while I am here, in happier news, these two lovelies sold the other day.

Just venting momentarily about the fact that we just had the plumber out here and had to replace our garbage disposal. $541 later and we're advised to put only down the disposal what we can't scrape off into the trash.....what is the point??
