HOW BAZAAR
Well, Thanksgiving came and went, as did Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday. But, what was up with Sunday? Oh let me guess – Take A Breather Sunday? I doubt it. Air Travel Sunday, perhaps.
Seriously, though, I do hope you all had a beautiful Thanksgiving spent in the company of your loved ones. I made this apple pie for my family, my first time making an all-butter crust. It was yummy, but next year I’ll just stick to my usual shortening crust; it’s much flakier and preferred by my “critics”. I’ve yet to make a butter/shortening combo crust. Perhaps I should give that a try.

Anyway, the next few weekends are sure to be filled with holiday bazaars in every town, and I do hope you’ll take the time to attend a few. They’re fun, child friendly and often help support local organizations. Be sure to visit the local art galleries and museums too! They’re a fabulous pick for finding beautiful gifts. And, while you’re there, take some time to view the current exhibit. Seriously. Stare at some art even if you don’t get what da heck the artist was alluding to. If for nothing, you’ll be gifted a few moments of calm and an opportunity to entertain your inner Picasso.
I’ll be setting up shop at local fairs for the following two Saturdays and plan to attend a few as a browser/shopper this Sunday. Here’s a peak at what I’ve been making in preparation for the two events I’ll be participating in –

And, yes, I agree – the photo quality is less than stellar. Sorry about that. 🙁
Now, go browse, support and shop creative… in your home town, of course.
