What fun to relive our trip to the Downtown Market. My dinners from the takeout place were just as good as they looked, and the cheese I bought is one of the best I've ever had.<br /><br />You should get a commission from the Market and from Heather Lane Pottery for enticing so many people to consider visiting them. :-)<br /><br />PatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-9692922325383367152014-04-04T18:12:49.554-04:002014-04-04T18:12:49.554-04:00Goodness me, shopping here would be a delight inst...Goodness me, shopping here would be a delight instead of a chore.Frikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04277167831642088694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-85420462696148459232014-04-04T15:13:08.011-04:002014-04-04T15:13:08.011-04:00IKEA is one of my favorite stores!IKEA is one of my favorite stores!The Artful Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01039109515963974739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-13357334164203908762014-04-03T19:25:50.526-04:002014-04-03T19:25:50.526-04:00wow Jeanie everything looks so fresh and perfect. ...wow Jeanie everything looks so fresh and perfect.

Reading your post here prompted me to look up the Google map of Michigan and area to find, wow I didn't know before (as a Westerner) that Michigan is so close to Canada. I knew about Detroit and Windsor sharing the border, but didn't know about other cities and towns in the US that are close to Toronto. I seldom go to the East, but my son lives in TO. It's great to see how close Michigan is to Ontario. They share a border. As for me, I've to take a 4-5 hr. plane ride to get there.Artihttp://rippleeffects.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-37779991549884380972014-04-01T06:58:48.763-04:002014-04-01T06:58:48.763-04:00Those stores are all so cute!

And I am always a fan of spice stores and usually try to treat myself to something fun when visiting them as they are so good about having things like seasoning mixes for chicken or pork, etc. There is a cute spice store in Charlotte and this post reminds me that I need to go there this weekend and get some Rogan Josh which is an Indian spice mix that I love.Lisa from Lisa's Yarnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335500882510597919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-82938447174168747262014-04-01T06:55:37.801-04:002014-04-01T06:55:37.801-04:00I didn't know about this and will have to make...I didn't know about this and will have to make a road trip.

Being on spring break, I was able to go out today to interview a local author who will be the subject of one of my articles for a magazine I am writing for. It was fun.<br /><br />Thank you kindly for coming to visit me, and you know Adrien Legg's music too! Don't you just adore his style?<br /><br />Have a lovely day dear one.
