An afternoon in the fresh air and sunshine at the local arts and crafts festival with a wee bit of day drinking, followed by an excellent nap – is a pretty great way to spend a sunny Saturday.

99.9% sure I am gonna go back tomorrow, cause a) it’s just fun, b) wine bar with patio seating, c) piece of slightly pricey art that I still very much want even after thinking on it, and d) another piece from the same stall my brother had his eye on. (Will I be able wait to give it to him for his birthday? We shall see.)

But today, got some fun art prints, a very sparkly Christmas decoration, a cute Christmas ornament, a cool assed steampunk kitty sticker, a pretty little coffee cup, and a bunch of “reusable paper towels” aka, cute flannel napkins with kitty prints, and flowers, and bees!

Did I need any of these items? No. Do they all make me smile and happy to know some east coast artists will be able to eat and make more art? HELLS, YES.

Seriously, it was a very, very good time, and HOW DARE FRESH AIR AND EXERCISE BE SO DAMN GOOD FOR MY MOOD? It’s almost insulting. I mean, the wine and shrimp egg rolls didn’t hurt at all, but it was another example of how I am so very, very solar powered. We didn’t have any blizzards this winter, but the grey seemed to go on for so long.
