KW goes to the Yankee Peddler Festival every year, and this year he invited Mitch and me along. Below is a map of the fairgrounds:
Yankee Peddler is an arts and crafts festival set in the woods of Akron. There was everything imaginable, from a butterfly tent (icky!) to a guy who made pewter figurines! By the time I arrived, Mitch and KW had already purchased a bottle opener shaped like a horse:
and a cutting board:
Mitch also got a pewter T-Rex for her hubby, but I forgot to take a picture :( There was a candle stand that sold all sorts of interesting smelling candles. There was a bacon candle, that smelled A LOT like bacon. KW bought one candle and I bought 3.
My only regret is not buying more! They smell SO good and make the house smell great too! I bought pumpkin cheesecake, toes in the sand (it smells like summer) and huckleberry.
The rest of the weekend was uneventful. I went grocery shopping, and, to my surprise I saw tastykakes on display at Wal*mart!! My hometown sweets are going nationwide!
I also bought some fancy makeup from Macy's. I really want to be one of those ladies who can wear red lipstick. I LOVE red lipstick, but always worry it'll make me look too hookerish, so I'm always to scared to wear it. I tried wearing pigtails to help tone down the red lipstick:
Success?
Leeann got a new job, so we'll be celebrating next Sunday with Sam and Sarp (hopefully, he hasn't confirmed yet). YAY LEEANN!
So why didn't you buy one of the bacon candles? i really like your new make up. You always look wonderful.
ReplyDeleteIf my house smells like bacon, I want it to be because I cooked bacon!
DeleteAwww, thanks dad! Turns out I CAN get away with red lipstick!
