last weekend we checked out the Encinitas street fair. being a little beach town, it was easy to find goodies that reflected the relaxed surfer atmosphere, the green/organic attitude, and the extremely dog-friendly vibe. while i'm sure OB and Lani would begrudgingly accept it if i dressed them up in more than their polo shirts, i doubt they would love these hats. still, it was fun to see these real-life models. they were so well behaved! (he said it was because they were on the job).
yesterday we visited the Carlsbad street fair. again, there were so many booths with a lot of unique items. one of my favorite companies is Carlsbad Gourmet. they make one of my top 6 sauces as well as a bunch of tasty jams/jellies, mustards, and other sauces featuring locally grown strawberries. this time we took OB along for the day. since he's gotten a little older, OB's been pretty well-behaved in public. it's a crowded venue with LOTS of people and other dogs wandering around. i wouldn't dream of taking Lani until she's calmed down considerably. but OB was a hit. he's such a cartoonish looking dog and we couldn't walk past 3 booths before someone was asking what breed he was and petting his handsomely huge head.
between both trips, we ended up only buying a few things and they were all for Saraya...
a snow rose bonsai tree
a jellyfish paperweight/nightlight
a sufer baby beanie
