Its a very dreary, grey, windy, rainy day here today! The good thing is though if you go out and get your nice wool socks wet, you can take them off, wring them out, and they will dry fast, and your feet will stay relatively dry and comfortable! Step-son spent some time in Costa Rica, and this is what he did while there. It does not have to be winter to wear wool socks is my message for today! Our socks work really well too, in rubber boots! It is rubber boot season now for us in Nova Scotia. I am still wishing I had a pair of those see-through rubber boots so I could advertise my socks! Oh oh now that has given me a great idea, I may have to go searching for a pair again. If I had a pair I could wear them at the market too! Oh wouldn't that be special!
We will be at the market again next Saturday, April 27/13 7am -1pm.
Hope it is a sunny bright day then, and the people will venture out to the market. Our last appearance was a very dull snowy, icy day so that did nothing for our potential and actual sales. Speaking of market coming up I should go check our goals, and take tally of the socks we have available to date. MrB is right on top of our goals so he hasn't needed to do a lot of knitting/cranking this week so far. He will catch up and do some cranking this coming week though. I think he needs a break so he can focus on learning some new techniques to get his creative juices flowing before summer comes along.
What we all need soon is Mr. Sunshine to make regular appearances. Here in Nova Scotia, spring is our rainy time, and spring is late, and here is the rain, which means not much SUN! The sun makes people happier! I want lots of happy customers visiting our sock display at the market next week. Do you think that is too much to ask for? Well if it is raining, raining, raining, then I just have to keep the sunshine in my smile instead. Looking on the bright side.
Looking on the dry side too! Where you are, is it raining? A rainy day is good though once in awhile then you can do what I am doing, not much at all, and it stimulated me to post a rain or shine sock post!
