The blackberry festival

Another local festival today...

I actually spent a fair amount of money buying local things - I bought potpourri and oil, a dog bone, ginger marinade (I tried it on fried mushrooms - it was delicious!  And I hate mushrooms), and blackberry wine.  The blackberry wine is the exact same I buy at the local grocery store, but here the proceeds benefited the festival and the city, so I bought some more. 

Plus, fair food!  I had a hamburger with extra pickles, a blackberry milkshake, and blackberry soda.  Awesome. 

Today is my Sunday.  I only had 2 days off this weekend, and I spent 20 hours of my first day off sleeping.  Yes, you read that correctly.  Apparently I was very very tired. 


You can clutch the past so tightly to your chest that it leaves your arms too full to embrace the present.
