Saxapahaw Holiday Market

The Saxapahaw Holiday Market this past weekend was a huge success! The ballroom looked beautiful and was decorated very festively. So many people came out (despite the cold) and everyone was very nice. The holiday spirit abounds! Thank you to everyone who stopped by my JAKE & META table.

Welcome December

We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and that December is off to a beautiful start! Sunny and high 50s in our neck of the woods. Still hoping for snow at Christmas...

Nov 23 Emerson Waldorf Holiday Faire

Come visit us this Saturday, November 23! The Emerson Waldorf Holiday Faire is this coming Saturday from 10:00am-3:00pm at 6211 New Jericho Road in Chapel Hill, just down the road from Allen and Son Barbeque (WELL worth a stop). It's free and on a school campus, so it's very child friendly and will include horse carriage rides. Plus, it's supposed to be warm(ish) again this weekend, in the mid 60s. Hope to see you there!

Nov 17 POP-UP Sunday

We hope you'll come visit us this Sunday, November 17! The POP-UP Sunday Holiday Market is the last monthly pop-up this year and takes place this coming Sunday from 12:00-5:00pm at 509 N. West Street in Raleigh. It's free, and there will be lots of other vendors, including food trucks. Plus, you can bring your dog and right now it's looking like a comfortable 67 degrees this weekend. Hope to see you there!

Black and yellow spider

Spiders creep me out, but you can't help but marvel at them, with their intricate, delicate, life-threatening webs. This one set up shop a few weeks ago and is still there. Today I saw an ensnared bumble bee. As long as he stays away from me, I'll steer clear of him, and we can continue to co-exist... from a distance!
