10/12/2003 Archived Entry: "harvest festival"

My mom and I had a great time at the Harvest Festival. It's the first time we've gone in October as we usually go in December. I liked the venue which was more spread out than the Dec. show and it did seem to be different vendors than usual. But now I want to go again in December. I don't know if my mom will want to go again, so it may just be me and the Tabster. Here's what I got today: A handpainted wooden sign with the words "Harvest Time" on it which is the one item I wanted to be sure to get; garlic teriyaki sauce; garlic cheese bread; witch pumpkin topper; this year's family dough ornament of a gingerbread mommy, daddy and child personalized; Xmas gift for our Mommy and Me instructor; and a whimsically decorated sign that reads:
When a child laughs...
Smile.
When a child speaks...
Listen.
When a child hurts...
Heal.
When a child dreams...
Believe!

I totally fell in love with it and had to get it. Actually, my mom was very nice to buy it for me and it is much appreciated. Tabitha wants me to hang it in her room so that's what I'll do since I wasn't quite sure where I wanted it.
After the festival, we had lunch at Millies and I wasn't feeling like a veggie burger so I got the appetizer plate of fried zucchini. I only ate one at lunch (they're rather large) and felt pretty full. I reheated them for dinner and ate 2 and now I feel positively quesy. Tabitha brought me water when I told her I wasn't feeling well, she's such a sweetie :)
Well, I need to get her to bed as it's late and I'm going to watch more Gameshow Network.
