Lovely Saturday

My little miss and I had the most lovely afternoon. While the music man worked in the studio, Katie Mae and I went into town with no purpose other than to stroll around and enjoy ourselves. As we were browsing through the shops on Main Street, I went into a little antique store I had never visited before and it was most exquisite! Full of all these charming, beautiful treasures...I saw so many lovelies I wanted to take home with me! I ended up buying this georgous picture. I'm not sure who the artist is, but I love the opulent costumes and the coy expression on the lady's face. I also bought a bar of fancy lavendar soap for my mom. The owner packaged everything up with such care. No plastic bags here! She carefully bubble-wrapped my picture and put everything into a brown bag with red tissue paper and rustic green ribbon. You don't get that at TJ Maxx. A most enjoyable experience that makes me even more resolved in my pledge to support small businesses!
