After we parted ways with Neighbor and her children, it was off to a new fabric store I had recently discovered online. After many late nights pouring over the delicious fabrics designed by the likes of Amy Butler, Joel Dewberry and other great fabric artists, I finally found a local store that sells some of these fiber designs. They did not disappoint. At last, I got to see the colors in real life, feel the fabrics, and check the drape. Ahh! I managed to escape with just one new pattern and two fabrics, but we'll be back.
Lastly, it was off to a unique, old-fashioned candy store. The children each had five dollars from Grandmama and Papa burning holes in their pockets. And now they have sugar eating holes in their teeth. It was a fun time for all, though. If only Baby O would tolerate dairy, I can assure you I would have had the soda jerk make me on of those "four scoops of ice cream" hand made milk shakes. Someday.
Hurray for Local Pleasures!!
