weekend update.

The weekend was interesting; who can hate on a long weekend?  Not me!  I spent the holiday off driving through Vermont, shopping at some weird ass stores. I visited farmway which is a store filled with all things Patagonia, Pendleton, and North Face.  This is typically not my thing but I persevered and left with what I like best: hats!  Last winter zach had a bunch of basic $10 hats from uo that I stole, wore, and lost on a regular basis.   By the end of the winter, we had one left between the two of us so I stocked up on basic hats in black, navy and royal for him (and me) to wear through the winter.  And I could not resist this hat for myself:  it’s purple, it covers my ears, and most importantly, it’s got a big pom. 

Our next stop was pizza for lunch in the middle of an old, rundown town.  As we sat in the window, one of my co-workers said “oh look, an old five and dime, let’s go in.”  I had never been to one of these old shops but I’m never one to turn down a creepy shopping experience.  Amongst the life size stuffed animal deer and paint-by-numbers I found a pretty decent craft section.  I also found a somewhat-hard-to-find skein of red heart Peruvian print yarn. Last night I made the DIY from honestly WTF below.  Mine will be a headband or bag accessory. 


My last stop on my day o shopping was the shoe horn in town.  I walked out with a new pair of black skinnies because of course I needed a fifth pair, right? Right.
