Sweet, sweet sunshine
Wow, the other day I saw something, something strange. I know I wasn’t the only one who saw this thing, for I heard others talking. I believe they called it the ‘Sun’, and this thing, the sun, felt strange. It was something I hadn’t felt in a long time and it took me a while to recognize what was happening to me. No longer did I quake and shiver in my ten layers of heavy clothing. Instead, I was encouraged by this heated mass of light to remove my coat — gasp! Thankfully and to the relief of all those around me, the stripping ended there.
But in my newly enlightened state, my wife and I felt inspired. And what does one do with such a feeling? Why, they go to the Alberta Gift show where they wander for hours on end looking for something, anything different and cool. You’d think that wouldn’t be too hard in such a place, but you’d be surprised. After some time we did spot some righteous items, right next to the booth stocked to the gills with plastic, furry kittens. If all goes well, we’ll even be bringing in some of those items (sadly,the plastic kittens didn’t make the cut).
In the meantime, we’re still waiting for our order of the new Lug bags (we still have some super cool Lug messanger bags in various colours). We also got our order of Littlemissmatched. Let the sock wars begin! And on the weekend we were paid a visit from the super cool Jen Rourke from Monkey Jar in Lethbridge. Jen creates amazing hand crafted leather purses and wallets and we’ve got a few real cool pieces (if my wife has anything to do with it they’ll end up on her shoulder). If we can figure out how to use our camera, we’ll load some pics this week.
