Slidell Antique Trade Days






Well...what an adventure! Had a great time! Me and Nancy waited on the rainstorms in the van as I spotted what has to be the best craft invention roll by.... a portable booth on wheels complete with flowerboxes. Makes me wonder what I am doing wrong especially when I realize we packed the tent in the front of the van under the 10 tons of necessary stuff we haul with us everywhere. After unloading (by the way we became Friday night entertainment when the locals parked in lawn chairs outside the dentist office across the street to watch the two crazy ladies unload...never knew crafting could be a spectator sport) our 10 tons of crap created I have to say one of the best craft booths at the whole show. We looked good- Great job Nancy!! We enjoyed meeting the local people (2 and 4 legged) Miss. Bella came in for a personal fitting and modeled some of her new designer dog dudes on the mainstreet of downtown. Like a true diva she stopped traffic and drew a crowd . Well I feel much better - feel like my desire and drive have been revived especially when I had several customers say that Kimbo and my designs are so much more unique that famous chihauhau store in the French Quarter. Can't wait until next weekend when the 3 crazy ladies take over Denham - See ya there!

You know spring is here.....when you smell crawfish and beer





Had the first crawfish boil of the season. James scored a sack of select crawfish. They were like mini lobsters ....but yummier. Everyone knows I love the claws...so these monsters were right up my alley. Nothing better that cold beer and hot crawfish to bring in spring in south louisiana!
