Since it was sunny (for the first time is far too long) on my lunch hour I decided to pop on down to the market (and by ‘the market’ I mean the oh so amazing Pike Place Market) and pick up some dinner supplies. Nothing beats the fruits/veggie stalls and of course the French bakery with AMAZING baguettes and more. It feels like I am back in Italy (I was lucky enough to live in Rome for a summer) seeing the specialty shops, bakeries, butchers, seafood mongers (not sure if this is a proper term but I like it) as I stroll through the market.

While I wandered I also have made a long to do list in my head of things I am desperate to craft including the following…
-A new apron (now that the deadline for Tie One On has been extended I think I can make one by June 1st)
-Tunic dress (from the super cool tutorial here)
-Reusable shopping sacks (based of ones I saw in Readymade)
-Typographic lino-blocks

…and so much more! I couldn’t resist taking a photo of the new geranium I got for my porch when I was snapping shots of my market goodies. I am hoping it will survive…I am somewhat bad with plants…but I am hoping to turn that around.
