These mini-place mats were made for a special friend of ours that has just turned 3. They will accompany a little fiestaware tea set. The place mats are only being given away now that 2 more have been made exactly the same for our house. (Thank you very much, so says Miss Sadie.) So, we got that taken care of. I am 99% sure this fabric is from reprodepot, but I don't see it there now. I am now officially collecting little red riding hood stuff. (Like I wasn't before?) but now it's for reals.
I am overly excited that this year's Willamette Week Food Guide for Portland is out. I keep these guides and read them all year. I never really go to these restaurants, I try to get to a few, but really I just love reading about the food scene and pretending I am a part of it. Then I nod knowingly when I talk to people about where they ate. But I will be headed over to the Sahagún Chocolate Shop which they touted. I need to point out Markio was hip to this place and told me about it long ago. That eggplant knows everything about this town!
Local folks: Gina at Bolt is putting up the aprons soon for the Alberta Art walk next Thursday, so if your homemade aprons want to meet some fame and friends, take them into to Gina soon!
