The last week has been so utterly lovely, thanks to time spent with Kelty. When we're apart I tend to think, "Hey, this isn't so bad... we handle it fine". But then we join up for a whirlwind wedding or roadtrip hijinks or nothing much of anything and it hits me just how much I missed her. And how much brighter, sillier and more creative my life is with her in it!
Have you seen the classic movie Bedknobs and Broomsticks? It stars Angela Landsbury {playing an apprentice witch}, takes place in London in the 40s, and is a kooky adventure from start to finish. At one point, Angela heads to the famed Portobello Road to search for an ancient manuscript of spells, and gets wrapped up in the mystery, zeal and history that is one of the most famous vintage markets of all time.
What might you be up to tomorrow evening from 4-7pm?
I'll be set up at Portland's own little make-shift Portobello road, Sabi & Friends Vintage, hocking my scarfen wares, nibbling on appetizers, and gabbing with guests both inside and on the sidewalk. And who knows, there may even be dancing.
Knit fit personified. Rainbow gluttonness. Faithful collector. Dress obsessed. Waiting for the fabrics to whisper what they'd like to become... while I also figure out how the heck my sewing machine works.
