We had the final Concord Arts Market of the season yesterday. It was such a great day! It got rained out the weekend before, but yesterday was gorgeous. There were lots of really cool vendors and shoppers! It was my first show taking credit cards, and, let me tell you, it was totally worth it. The whole process of taking them stressed me out, but I figured I need to join the 21st century sometime. The only crazy part of yesterday was the wind! Now I know why Katy, the organizer, makes everyone weigh down their tents so much. A couple times yesterday my tent lifted off the ground, and the weights were the only thing keeping it from flying! People's stuff kept blowing over too, which was no fun. At least it kept us on our toes!

Here are some pictures from the day. I took them before the crowds came, and then I forgot to take more all day!

My setup


The bracelet trees. This was the first show this year that I was the only one with these trees! Thank you, IKEA!

Some earrings and necklace sets. It was a good day for necklaces!

Pumpkin earrings! These remind me of my mom! And now they're hers!

As it gets cooler, our garden is winding down. Well, I don't know if something can wind down if it was never that bountiful in the first place! We picked the last of the jalapenos the other day, and also got a cucumber! Guess which one's the cuke:
It's so tiny! It looks like a little ball, but it's really a cucumber, from our own garden! I don't know how it'll taste, but at least we grew it!

Our pumpkin plants are not doing so great, especially since our landlord dug up half of them for no reason! That's another story, but we do have one growing! J's nephew came over the other day to look at it, and he said, "Oh, it's a peanut pumpkin!" So that's what it's called now. I love it!
It's about the size of my hand, and I'm proud!
