I’m still working on the new theme for the blog. How do you like the pink? I was in the mood for something a little sweet…

Also, I’ve reopened my Etsy shop. I still don’t know whether I’m better off having my own shop or going with Etsy; so for the moment, I think I’ll just have both!

I’m still here and working on an update - catch you soon!

Hi, all.  I’ve got a hankering to change up the shop and I’ll be working on it all day.  Feel free to visit, but pardon my dust…

Look for new items, too!

well, you haven’t heard much from me, lately - it’s summer! What are you doing in the house? Get out and ride!

It’s time again for the Waterfront Blues Festival. We get extra days this year to celebrate the festival’s 20th anniversary. The Blues Festival is a major fundraiser for the Oregon Food Bank. It’s also become a cherished Portland traditon. Where else can one sit in a park, created where there used to be a road, next to a river and pay only $8.00 + two cans of food for eight hours of music? Last night we saw James Cotton with Pinetop Perkins, the Blind Boys of Alabama and Joan Armatrading. Tonight we have to go because we can’t miss Eric Burden and the Animals! We’ll be skipping the festivities on Saturday for a gathering with some very dear friends who are back in town for a short visit, but we will be back on Sunday for Portland’s own March Fourth Marching Band and the Neville Brothers. I love this time of year and this event; so if you need me, that’s where I’ll be.
