Preparations and Kindred Spirits...

I've been busy! I know I've promised photos of the last wine fest, but have been so busy preparing for tomorrow's Cool and Groovy Garden Party that I just haven't had time! I did put one of the photos as my "cover" photo on my new facebook page. I have some great new products too... Hence the busyness in prepping for tomorrow. I now have bamboo scoops and some "Personal Boho Bags" which are single cup, reusable teabags made from fabric scraps. Much like my "Batik Boho Bags" and stamped muslin bags, only smaller. The fabric scraps are from my latest idea... loose tea travel kits. Still trying to think of a clever name for them... They consist of a jewelry type roll bag with a pocket equipped with a bamboo scoop, 6 disposable paper filter bags, 2 bamboo skewers to use with the filter bags and 4 small ziplock bags, as well as 4 smaller pockets to keep those little bags of teas and sweeteners organized! I promise to post photos after tomorrow!

On another note... I ran out fo the little bags I needed for my travel kits, so I headed to Michaels to get some. Of course I can't get out of Michaels without looking through the bead department... There was another bead lover there looking... and those of you that know me, know that I will start a conversation up at the drop of a hat. Well... this lovely lady and I struck up a conversation and found we were quite kindred! Her name is Jeannie... I was so frazzled from this week (not to mention exhausted from my chronic insomnia) that I didn't have a business card or even a pen to write info down! She had a pen and paper so I wrote down my blog address... It was all I could think of! Anyway... Jeannie was familiar with the wine fests that I do and told me she would try to get out to next week's and that she would visit my blog. I hope she does... I've been such a social wreck lately, I didn't even think to get any of her contact info! So Jeannie, if you get here to my blog, please keep in touch! It's not often we are led to such kindred spirits!
