It was a grand time, with great vendors, produce, plants, yarns, pickles, pies, crafts, herbs, music, lectures and demonstrations. Coventry knows how to do a special farmers' market - make no mistake!
But I was glad to get home. I unpacked, put things away, then grabbed my book and headed to the deck where I promptly dozed off in the afternoon sun. I woke refreshed, picked some nice lettuce from the garden and made a huge salad for supper. Then I tended to the garden again.
I visited that Etsy place, did a little promotion, and checked on the new shop in the family . . . Open Air Painting by Rick Derwitsch (AKA: The Boy). There you can see, enjoy and purchase beautiful works of art, like this:
With that, I'm off to make more time to rest, relax, recharge and renew!
Beautiful painting!
ReplyDeleteThe paintings are so lovely! And now Rose it is my turn to grant you a web-award! http://artshapedworld.blogspot.com/2008/07/another-one.html
ReplyDeletePickle Palooza? That sounds right up my alley. I love pickles and farmer's markets - these are a few of my favorite things!
ReplyDeletePickle Palooza was fun! The Coventry Farmers' Market organizers really know how to bring a market to life!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, the boy paints beautifully. He's been showing in galleries in and around CT for some 30-years now and the Etsy outlet is VERY empowering!
And yikes! Another award! Thanks Nici . . . :)
These painting are so lovely!
