a saturday in town

After finishing our cleaning this morning, we walked to a neighborhood yardsale.  We found a number of wonderful books for the children, a breadbox and some vintage embroidered linens, and a microscope with slides.

Then we made our way to the farmer's market in town:

We made our purchases and were about to leave, when several teams of Morris dancers from the region turned up and gave a free performance.

We left the dancers behind to stop at the local yarn shop (to get some help on a pattern), and then went home for a lunch of quiche and salad, followed by apple pie with ice cream.  Now why does everything from the farmer's market taste so wonderful?

All in all, a wonderful day of sunny skies and lovely surprises.

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend, wherever you are!
