Blowout Fun!

The Metrotimes Blowout was such a blast! Wednesday was the opening night in the Majestic Complex, and Baar Bazaar was there to sell and celebrate! The vendors were awesome, the crowd was phenomenal, and the bands were super entertaining! Fox 2 news covered the evening and Dan took lots of pictures while I was slinging drinks.

Thursday was Handmade Detroit at the K of C lounge in Hamtramck. I had a great time hanging out with the HD girls and watching the bands! I was especially impressed with Aran Ruth.

Thanks so much to Eve Doster and the Metrotimes for inviting Baar Bazaar and Handmade Detroit to be part of the Blowout!!!!

Eclipse

You can go anywhere to find high quality video or photos of the 02/08 lunar eclipse. This is the only place that you can hear all of the ridiculous conversations the dudes and I were having while I was taping this rare celestial event.

It always turns into conversations about guns at some point, right?

A DIY wedding

On Friday night my best friend Monica got married. She and I have known each other almost our entire lives (we met in kindergarten), and I always knew she was a crafty girl in a crafty family, but I never expected Monica and her husband Mark to have a truly DIY (and really beautiful!) wedding with a little help from their friends. The favors, centerpieces for the reception, decorations for the church, flower girl baskets, and the bridal party bouquets were all handmade by Monica and her friend Julie - but they looked like Martha Stewart had made them herself!

Monica and Mark

Dan and I had a great time, and I was honored to be a member of the bridal party. Congratulations and best wishes to Mark and Monica and the whole M&M family!!!
