It's the tail end of summer and I'm determined to hold on tight. This has been an incredible summer filled with change and unexpected surprises with tons of opportunity for growth and new things. I've been challenged to the point of tears and also elated at blossoming possibilities. All must be taken in stride. This blog will be my way of sorting through all of it while unleashing my creativity that was held captive for 4.5 years.
A few days ago, I celebrated my 33rd birthday. Wow! What a big number. I had the pleasure of spending the entire day with friends whom I consider family, and some new friends as well. It was one of my best birthdays in recent memory and I have them to thank for it. Thank you!! :)
Today, the sun is shining again and it's Saturday... so that means the Farmers Market is open! My neighbourhood has a market every Saturday from May - Oct. However, because of my previous job, I was never able to attend. Last week was the first time I went down there. There was misty rain that day and I caught them just before they closed but it was lovely all the same. It was the first rain in weeks and I relished the opportunity to put my wellies on and stomp around.
But today.. today it is gorgeous outside and I have friends coming over for a BBQ potluck! So I'm going down to the market for some fresh, local produce. I can't wait to discover what delightful goodies the artisan bakers and cheese makers will bring today. There is something tremendously satisfying about going to the Farmers' Market -- colours, sights, sounds, smells, community. I will come back with tasty goodies for tonight!
