Last Saturday we went to Findlay Market for the very first time. I absolutely loved it and can't wait to go back. It's so much more than just fruits and vegetables. I can't believe we have lived here for 5 years and just now discovered the goodness of this place.
They had salsa, soap, honey, flowers, woodworking, baskets, meat, cheese, bread, spices, waffles, desserts, fudge, bakeries, and a host of other items.
Late that afternoon our church had a surprise retirement party for our pastor's wife, Mrs. Durr, at Karen's house. Surprised she was! It was fun.
There was one small catastrophe that happened with the chocolate fountain. Mrs. Wingham was overseeing the process of melting the chocolate and the three tiers had lovely chocolate cascading down. All of a sudden the piece in the middle rose up about 4-5 inches and the fountain was still spinning! I never heard so many people scream and scurry. There was chocolate flying all over the place (as you can see in the above picture - which was taken after it was stopped). It was terrible and funny all at the same time.
Later on that night, we met at Ron and Jennee's house for a surprise birthday party for Mark Foster.
Kristin made this incredible dessert that was delicious!!
Jennee, Katie, me, Kristin
Jake, the dog, was very possessive of his bone. . .
. . . except when Wesley got a hold of it! He did exactly what Jake does with it - in the mouth it went!!
On Monday, Mark's actually birthday, Mark grilled out steaks (fillet Mignon from Findley Market) and we ate on the back porch!
This is a little late, but had to post this picture. Kristin was overjoyed that Michael English was coming to town last week and just HAD to go see him in concert - so we did.

Wow looks like you have been very busy!!! Love the chocolate fountain picture. Poor Mrs. Wingham!!!:)
Maria told me I needed to get on your blog and check out the chocolate eruption. :-) Love the pic of Kristin with Michael English. Very cool!
Ok, so maybe it was terrible if you were there, but I thought the chocolate fountain explosion was absolutely hilarious. I would've died laughing. Of course, it wasn't my house. Glad you had enough composure to take a picture! :)
The market looks fun. I love fresh fruits and veggies. the chocolate fountain catastrophe- too funny. (although I'm sure it wasn't at the time) :)
