Market/Chapter 1 ~ Set-up Day & Sample Spree
May 17th, 2008
I’m just getting started. Oh yes… this is just the start. Having way too much - so I’m taking a little break from market today and resting the ol feet. Just a few pics from set-up and Sample Spree. More to come. Oh. So. Much. More.
Oh. What’s this? Hmmm. What if, what if…
Elizabeth sees that look in my eye. And senses danger.
“Ok Pam… I’m parked in the F section on parking level one…”
Wool delights from Brenda. I got to shop early and Bren’s wool is THE most beautiful wool ever. EVER!
Sandra, Tara and Kathy from The Teacher’s Pet. These gals were such a hoot and so, so sweet! And now I’m outing Kathy as my favorite lurker!
Me, Jennifer, Pam and Elizabeth. Jennifer’s giving us the star treatment… Pam and I are giving her the boob treatment.
I didn’t take too many photos at Sample Spree. Maybe because I was too busy spreeing. More to come when I get back!
PS… guess who else came to Market? Yup… Triskit is who. And she’s making her rounds. Not only has she gone to Market… Triskit now has her very own stylist. By Market’s end, she’ll no doubt be needing a PA, a publicist, driver and personal chef. Triskit’s gettin’ around. Just saying.

May 17th, 2008LOl.. the boob treatment… time for me to get off my stuff and get dressed… without a bra, I’m giving myself a boob treatment!
How fun! It’s so nice to put a face to my favorite Zombie-a kiss on both your cheeks!
May 17th, 2008Oh, you are all having so much fun!!! I wish I was there too! The wool looks just delicious!
May 17th, 2008All I can say is - fun, fun, fun. You lucky thing.
May 17th, 2008I’m jealous! Completely jealous. Willing to consider not kicking you anymore if you’ll sneak me in your suitcase next time!!
May 17th, 2008Me too…I’m totally jealous too.. And my oh my that is some serious boobage in that picture. My pre-reduction boobies would have fit in perfectly.
May 17th, 2008Looks like your having wayyyy toooo much fun there Miss Zombie!!! Did you give PKM that hug for me???
May 17th, 2008Monica, seriously your sense of humor is amazing. I about choked laughing so hard at the boob comment, I’m still laughing, and will everytime I think of either you or pam (for a while) hahaha. Its so clever and funny. You are such a bunch of great girls. I was right in there with you in spirit. I can’t think of a better group to get into trouble with.
I look forward to seeing more! Wouldn’t it be hard not to bandit that spree stuff.
May 17th, 2008oooh I want some wool, too!
May 17th, 2008Looks like a blast, thanks for giving us a tour. I can’t wait for more, this is so exciting.
May 18th, 2008Oho MJM! Too much fun, girlfriend! How I would LUV to be there, but I will oh-so-happily live it through your eyes and words.
May 18th, 2008Is Miss Trisket going to do a nude photo shoot at Market? Rolling in the fabric maybe?? Wild child!! Woo hoo!!
You’re going to need a BIG suitcase to fit us all in for the next trip!
May 18th, 2008Booby Hugs for everyone!! :) hee hee How totally fun. Wishin’ I was out there, but glad you girlies are having fun. :)
May 18th, 2008What a fab time y’all are having! And I’m so jealous that you got to meet Jennifer!
May 18th, 2008That looks like such fun - I can’t wait to hear more!!
May 19th, 2008Monica!!! I’m so sad I missed you at Market! Crap! I was at sample spree too but was a tad overwhelmed. I am dying here at your boob comment because I was just telling my roomies at Market yesterday that I was walking around Sample Spree in a sea of boobs (am am a tiny 5-ft-tall with no chest and my face was right at boob lever with everyone else!!! LOL!) I might have grazed your boob once or twice and never known it. eeek! ;)
So glad you had a great time. I had an amazing time and as soon as I get my butt in gear I will download all the hundreds of pictured I took and blog away. Isn’t Jennifer P. the sweetest thing EVER??? UGH! I just wanted to squeeze her for an hour!
May 19th, 2008I am such a dolt! Two days into market and in the middle of the night I visualized the name on your badge and realized who you were! I had been puzzling over it because I thought I should know you and suddenly it came clear. Unfortunately, not soon enough so that I could tell you. And you gave such good advice on how far it would be by taxi to that event we wanted to go to … and didn’t. So please accept my apologies for not recognizing you for the star you are!
May 19th, 2008It was great to finally meet you!!! But I must let you know that there are rumors about your friend Triskit all over Portland. I heard there might even be photos! What’s this world coming to???
May 19th, 2008Looks like you’re having too much fun with the gang and “the girls”. Love that boobie treatment bit. Anyhoo, I’m somewhat disappointed that you are not wearing your pastel prairie dress. LOL!
Hello, Triskit! Why are you in a basket full of veggies and potholders? Who are you hiding from?? LOL!
May 19th, 2008Look at all you girls all in one place….. causing a ruckus … er, I mean having so much fun!!! And isn’t Triskit quite the celebrity?!?! (I’m not even mentioning it to Kitty …. she’ll be so jealous I’ll NEVER hear the end of it!)
May 20th, 2008looks like allot of fun to me, and nice you got to hand with Jennifer!! She is great!
May 21st, 2008Monica,
It was so nice to meet you in person. I’m finally getting over the fact that everyone left me at the table to eat by myself. Don’t worry, I’ll be ok. :)
Isn’t the excitement of Market wonderful. I always love it!
