they liked me, they really liked me!

after 3 days of no internet service (boooo!) i'm back online again! whew. i was starting get all twitchy and sweaty after 3 days of no blogging, no emailing, no surfing. but it's okay now. the color is coming back to my face.

so, i had a great time this past weekend at the festival. i totally won a prize! i was awarded a red ribbon in the "mixed media" category. second place is pretty cool! i was surprised to say the least. i also sold more than i ever have at a festival, so i guess the new designs went over well.

THANK YOU so much for all the encouraging words. i really, really appeciated that.

and here's a couple of photos one of the festival and one of yesterday's apple picking adventure.
