Eiffel Tower Note Card & Origami Owl Jewelry

LOVE ORIGAMI OWL!

Who gets excited over a Eiffel Tower Note card for a $1? ME!

I figured when I eventually have a jewelry bar I can use the note card as a display right? Always having to think ahead!

Payless Shoe Sale I'm a size 4 ,Daughter an 8!

     Cute red! Size 8 

                Cute gray size 8! 

How can it be I wear a size 4 when my 14 year old wears a size 8! Shopping at Payless the other day there were so many styles to choose from in the size 8 category yet the size 4 section screamed toddler area. Don't get me started on high heels! My choice of dressy shoes tend to be the Mary Jane Easter Sunday look! Not fair I say! Anyone else have small feet? 

I wanted this fuchsia and black pair

Nope! Had to settle for this sexy number .....

Plain Jane Black 

Size 5 

...so I have to wear thick socks yet hey they were $5.00 and with the BOGO sale they were $2.50 ! I need to be grateful -I know.

Vintage Covered Buttons in Mermaid Butter Cookies Tin

There's something about covered vintage buttons. Not sure if its the texture,colors or overall look-I love them! I saw Mermaid Butter Cookies Tin from Denmark yet written across was "Wade Covered Buttons". Low and behold I opened the tin and found this! Score!

 Now what should I do with them? Any suggestions?

Blossoming Buddies-San Diego

Hello Blogger Buddies

I started this group here in San Diego,CA 

Thought I would share to get the word out! 

Blossoming Buddies! 

A group of entrepreneurs who don't have the resources to show their product getting together  collectively and creating their own multi vendor show. Do you have a product that you either created or feel strongly about? Do you want to know if your item will sell at a Farmers Market, Craft Fair or other venue? Do you not have the money to pay for entrance fees or sellers permit? You may not even be sure you want to go this route and just want a part time gig? This group is for the person who needs help networking and even getting their own Facebook page put together. Baby steps in seeing if this is really something you would like to do. 

The beauty of BlossomingBuddies   is the initial low cost of signing up. Basically once we have a location you bring your product(s) and a potluck to share and network. The out of pocket besides your inventory is a potluck item and the gas to get you to the venue. The Blossoming Buddies

 Group will meet throughout San Diego County and surrounding areas. Please tell Grandma or Grandpa  about this just in case they don't use Facebook!  

Please "like" the fan page so we can get the word out. 

Note: If we have duplicate vendor product the sellers of that same product can work together dividing client by zip code ;Basically working something out. 

Post any questions comments or concerns! 

Feel free to post pictures and telling us about yourself. 

"Like" one another's FB pages if you have one. If you don't no worries we will make one for you . For now get an inventory together and it's ok if you don't have much, you can add to an existing table. The Blossoming Buddies is here to mentor, guide and  share!

Little Italy Mercato Farmers Market - San Diego, CA Part One

Took the day off from the Rancho San Diego Farmers Market to pay a visit to Little Italy Mercato Farmers Market in San Diego,California. 5 blocks of Farmers,Artisan Foods & Specialty Booths. Open year round rain or shine. 50 Certified Farm Booths, Fresh Produce, Local Meat, Eggs, Cheese and Fish and an array of fresh flowers. Julia (14) and I were in awe of the amount of people. Parking somewhat of a chore yet we said out loud, please let us find parking, please let us find parting. We happened to find parking a few blocks away. Okay it felt like miles yet it was worth the $1.20 for an hour with a 2 hour maximum time.

I figured I could manage the "3" step" parking program.

Though Julia had to remind me to "display" my ticket.







Julia and I loved the pretty yellow cottages. Notice she is slowly getting ahead of me. OK I'm a slow walker.



OK well I was walking like a tortoise and she the hare. This is where I began getting nervous. I know she's not 5 years old yet she still makes me nervous when she is so far away! Is it just me?

Yes, thank you God for street lights! I caught up to her. OK I was a little out of breathe however still able to maintain a small conversation.



 I manage to gasp"Julia look over there at the view,you can see the water!" Great the light turned green and of course after 2 steps it turn red! Why are the lights timed in such a way?





Now how cute is this?!!!Can't you just picture yourself on a little scooter holding on to a loved one?

OK these go-carts are adorable!
