I like to check out the fair in each city we live in. I am always looking for one like the Sonoma County Fair. I recall it with fond memories.
(mostly knit and crochet along with some sewing and a peek in our daily life)

I have been working festivals around Denver at my second job and I usually see a single bounce thing.

Weaving

There were a few ladies doing demos on weaving and spinning.
How nice it is to see them teaching anyone who wanted to learn the process.

This was another blanket with the same award on it. It looks like it was quick to crochet.

I liked that the canned goods had recipes with them. I am wondering what you do with the oranges.

Jeremiah was out hiking and took this pic of a mountain goat on the trail last week.
I believe he was at Quandary Peak hiking.
I have only seen these at the Denver zoo.

Here are the cooked beets. I like to put them on salads or pickle them. Or just eat them warm with ICBN spray on them.

I always think it is fun to show what I brought home.
The box is homemade winter squash ravioli. I froze them for later use. The carrots are wonderful.

Cherry Creek Denver Farmers Market
Originally uploaded by whirledpeas00
I have been working 2 jobs and have not been blogging much. This is the first farmers market I have been able to attend.
It was really crowded and hot and parking was a nightmere.
But I am off from work this morning and thougth I would go looking for it after my spinning class.
