...what I found at the Bazaar...

...can you believe that I went to the Bazaar without my camera?...neither can I...

...and because of the construction at our Church - we rented another facility for the Bazaar - so I couldn't just run home and get it...

...I wanted to take pictures of all the baked goods and the crowds and of the fresh lefse being made...(it's funny that I did a quick search of my blog to find the Lefse entries and I was surprised how many references there were to lefse...funny because until we moved here 5 years ago - I'd never even heard the word lefse...)but I didn't have a camera...

...but I can show you a few of the goodies that I got there...no baked goods though as I'm pretty sure that my offerings were the only vegan ones around...

...first is this lovely hand-hooked rug - I can't wait to have it beside my front door for Christmas...can you imagine all the hours that went into this beautiful rug...there were lots of hand-made crafts for sale...and I bought some others that I can't show you yet because they'll be little pressies for someone(s) who read this little blog...

...then there were these button cards sold as gift tags - but of course I don't want them as gift tags - I want the buttons off of them...

...I just loved these old metal ones - not sure what I'll use them for - but they'll be perfect...

...these pretty square ones will be perfect for a little baby sweater...

...and these green ones too - I've had another cute baby sweater in my queue for a while and these green buttons will be adorable on it...

...a sweet cross stitched bookmarker for my Bible...love that...

...the Man did not question any of my purchases but this one - he only said 'what'd you buy that for?' - to which I didn't really have any answer but that I liked it - a lot...
