A look at the indoor farmers market in Beverly. This is new this year, and such a wonderful market with wonderful vendors and visitors!

At the Pub...

For some food and conversation.
What a handsome guy, don't you agree?!?
(and getting shy about me with the camera...)

What is this, some new age roost?

So we have paused for the moment on the house we were looking at. We aren't sure it is really the right fit (pouting a wee bit about it), but in short there is a long history of issues connected with the houses and land in the area and the towns seems to have things really screwed up. Anyway, back the the picture of chickens in the swing set... We were driving by a house across town to see if we wanted to take a look at it and when we turned down the road this is what we saw in the neighbors back yard. I was in hysterics and made Nate stop so I could get a photo (there was a fence in the way so I couldn't get the awesome shot I really wanted). We really would love to have chickens and hopefully sometime in the (near) future we will have our own little flock! Well, I just loved that these hens were just chilling out in the "fort" part of the swing set. Genius! What better way to use it? After all it does kind of look like a coop without any fencing!

Soulful eyes

This girl is definitely my sidekick. I think she has such soulful eyes. My little snuggle muffin...

To be seen

Some new work drying. New nuno felted scarves and headbands for upcoming fairs. You can find me at the Cape Ann Woldorf School this Friday night (from 7-9) and all day Saturday for their holiday craft fair.

Present

I am participating in Present again this year, the holiday pop up shop on Main St. for November and December. I am happy to be sharing space selling my work with all the other amazing artists and crafters that are a part of it.
Thank you to everyone supporting local and or small businesses this year. You make the world go 'round! I appreciate your support!

Best guy ever!

Have I mentioned how amazing my boyfriend is? I was having one of those days yesterday where everything seemed to turn out to be a complete clusterf@ck. I was so grumpy (and my grumpy I mean straight up mad) and nothing seemed to be going my way. There has been so much going on I can hardly keep things straight, let alone keep my head on tight. When Nate came home later than usual from work, I realized why. He had gone to 3 different grocery stores to find me some nice flowers and the lemon cookies I like to cheer me up. And it worked! What a sweet man and what a wonderful surprise! It's pretty hard to be grumpy when someone you love surprises you with thoughtful gifts and when your face is stuffed with tasty lemon cookies!

On a side note, I hope you all are having a great day and make it to the polls. Even if you don't know who to vote for, make it count. I know I am thankful to have the right to vote, I am thankful for all the women who stood up and fought for my right to vote.
Happy tuesday, lovebirds!
