Fair, Fashion, Father's Day, and Food

Happy First Day of Summer, whether you are experiencing sunshine or not.


Heather wearing this year's theme of the fair, "Out of this World"

Me, wearing a top that I made from a Butterick 5645 pattern.

Party of Four

Close Encounters of the Eerie Kind at the NASA exhibit at the fair.  "We come in peace".


More at the NASA exhibit, Gemini Missions.  Astronaut Wally Schirra partook in this mission.

Last Friday at an IKEA buffet event.  This was the closest restaurant meal to homeland that my Swedish husband (Heather's dad) would get.   I am wearing Butterick 5386, mock wrap style.

Heather likes meatballs and mashed potatoes.  Salmon, marzipan cake, and lingonberry juice are my favorites.





This past Father's Day Sunday: Heather's dad enjoyed some honey spiced riblets at Hometown Buffet.

Heather and me, ready for an ice cream dessert.  Me wearing a Jalie 2921 scarf top (with a modified side instead of a centered tie)




Last Saturday at the fair after her dance performance: Heather holding up a fried Kool-Aid ball and a fried Oreo ball.  After eating one of each and a gulf of diet Pepsi, we felt "stuffed".  I wrapped the leftovers in the given paper, stuffed them in my big purse, and we enjoyed the rest of the afternoon...


Enjoying a courtesty mini red velvet cupcake at the grand opening of BabyCakes Cafe at Balboa Park.
