In Which I Am Crafty



I spent today at the annual Occoquan Craft Show. Occoquan is a small, picturesque, historic town on the Occoquan River. I've never been there before, but I will have to go again. There are a lot of cute little shops and restaurants. There is even a shop called The Polka Dot Diva. I love polka dots; I own 4 polka dot dresses. Disappointingly, the shop had more diva-related merchandise then polka dots.


Even though the weather was in the 90's, it was worth the discomfort. There were all kinds of artisans and creative displays. And free samples..... yum. The first Fair food of the season always tastes the best. It was a lot of fun to walk around, see the displays, listen to the musicians. On the way out, we stopped at Mom's Pies, where I got a delectable piece of almond chess pie. It was a really nice way to unwind from the week, and get a little preview of summer. I took pictures, but I misplaced the cord to connect my camera to the computer. When I find it, I will post them.
