Pettengill Farm

Hello dear friends.  I hope this Sunday finds you well rested.  My Chowdah is on the mend, thanks to the Vet, our new bff.

A few weeks ago, the Mister and I attended a charming holiday fair at Pettengill Farm.  It is located in Salisbury, Mass., which is is north of Boston. I took so many pics, I am splitting this post into two parts.











At least I know where the potty is.








This man used old books to create safe places for valuables.  Great idea.


This lady creates blank note books out of old photos.










Texting gloves, anyone?


I wonder if the Mister wore one of these when he was a baby.


This lady sells darling kits with everything you need to make these sweet little baby caps.











I asked the Mister to pick up the bag and model it for me. He is so used to me asking, he doesn't even blink. 




Maybe Dude can do a post on 5 ways to wear your old Christmas tree.


Which way is the wine?



Enjoy the last hours of your weekend!

  3. Trying to read label on knitted baby hat kits. They are so adorable. Is there a website listed? Can't quite make out the label. Tried goggling a few options..no luck. Looked like great fun! I,m a new followerer....enjoy your blog!

  4. The Mister really is a good sport. Doesn't look as if he's really enjoying himself (maybe he doesn't feel that's his color) but he gets an A+ for effort!

    1. That is the Mister's "I'm hungry" look. He found the cookies soon after. Have a great week. BRRRRRR - are you in Florida yet?

    2. He is easily satisfied in the food dept. BRRRRRR indeed! Here till the beginning of January. Somehow decorating a palm tree doesn't appeal to me - yet.

  5. That bib is too much! Next fall I'm going to invite myself along on a couple of your trips to these wonderful shows. But please don't ask me to deck myself in a Christmas tree skirt! Hope you had a wonderful weekend!!

  6. I've been waiting to read about your last holiday fair. Pettengill Farm - looks quite different from the average holiday fair - all in a good way. I'm going to have to find Salisbury, MA on a map!

  7. What a delightful fair, can't wait to see the rest of it. I talked to a friend this weekend and her dog is kinda like Chowdah - he ate an entire collar. The vet did an x-ray and she said you could see the whole collar - buckle and all. He, like Chow, has survived. Just thought you might want to know you're not alone! Have a great week!
