Thanks Baltimore for the best craft fair weekend in quite some time. Holiday Heap was a slamming success, despite (nay, possibly BECAUSE OF) the first snow of the season in Charm City, cold weather, and a mishap with some of our advertising... we still had record crowds all day, and managed to raise over $400 with our charity raffle for Art With A Heart. Amazing.
We had a couple vendors sell out completely, and lots of vendors & shoppers alike with big goofy holiday grins on their faces.
Sunday's show, Merry Mart was also great! A steady crowd, beautiful setting, christmas music to get everyone in the mood, and Hot Toddy's to get the rest of us in the mood. wink wink. By Sunday afternoon, I was in the mood, all right. In the mood to snooze. Which I did. starting at 9pm.
Yesterday it was right back to work in the studio (no days off till end of December, here at Red Prairie Press) but we had friends staying here from out of town, and while I printed away in the basement, there were three lads above me in the kitchen, baking chocolate chip cookies & hand delivering them. Not a bad deal, really. Last night I managed to put the squeegee down and go see Fantastic Mr. Fox, which I recommend dropping everything to see in the theater while it's still there. Possibly my favorite Wes Anderson film of all time, and animated at that. Call me if you go. I might just go again.
Until then, you know where to find me.....
