Practice for Providence Open Market!

Mom ca
me over to help again, arms laden with loot from
her tag-sale raid with Peggy this weekend. Yesterday, Dino and I scored big time with the most adorable paper lanters from Home Goods. He devised a no-fail way to hang them from the inside of the tent and they are absolutely darling. Mom saved Dad from having to construct a shelf himself by picking up the one shown at the tag sale--$5 bought us the shelf and five sturdy wooden boxes. We painted them the Mew color scheme and they are perfect for display. I was a little concerned for a while that condo police would come over and scold me for doing unautho

rized business on common property...so far, no scathing letters in the box. (Have you ever known a condo board member that didn't give a shit? Yeah, didn't think so.) My neighbors, Lisa and Joe and their little tykes Mattie and Daniel came over to get in on the fun--Mattie's a great helper. He's also great at jumping in puddles and riding his big wheel with 20" rims.



So, thanks to my mom and to Dino for their limitless ideas and resourcefulness. Everybody got along pretty well!

Now, tell the truth--would you stop into this booth? Got any ideas for improvement? Post 'em here.
