Winter Craft Fair
M, R, Bre, and I all attended a craft fair today. It was nice to go out with all of them. We spent the day together, really. But the craft fair was a little lame.
Not that the crafts were lame. No, I don't mean that. I mean, there were not a whole lot of booths and not a whole lot of variety of crafts. I think winter craft fairs just don't do as well. (Although, I don't see why not. It was cold. And I totally would have bought the shit out of a wool vendor, if there were one there. But, sadly, there was not.)
I had in mind to get some stitch markers, since I seem to keep losing all mine. But I saw no booths that had knitting-related parafernalia. Well, one booth had some ruffle scarves, but that was it.
I did end up buying some Orange Dreamsicle Cake Balls from a very nice lady. T loved those.
He loves Orange Dreamsicle Cake, which we had at a restaurant many years ago and I have been trying to replicate it ever since. I usally do pretty well at copycatting restaurant food. I'm really a super-taster, so I tend to be able to pick up all the ingredients, no matter how subtle. However, I have yet to get the Orange Dreamsicle Cake exactly right.
Still, these cake balls were good. And I feel a little more motivated to try a Dreamsicle Cake again.
