bazaar

a couple of weekends ago, the baron and the husband attended the harvest bazaar, hosted by the local elementary school. the bazaar occurs every year; parents of students who attend the school pool their baubles, electronics, books, and other junk, sort it by function (for example, you will see a fry pan and an ice cream maker sharing shelf space, as they can both be broadly defined as 'kitchen'), and invite the neighborhood en mass to attend. it's kind of an awesome tag sale.

last year, the baron and the husband got a bicycle, a cement paw making kit, and a really lovely birdhouse.

this year, they got these fu lion bookends...

and these delicate, green-stemmed glasses...

which immediately brought frangelico to the baron's mind...

which in turn reminded the baron of the first time she tasted frangelico, at a restaraunt in playa langosta, costa rica, on lalee's 28th birthday... sigh.
