Fair, part 2

Today is Kathryn's turn! She had a great time at the fair as well. She dressed as a farmer for the Healthy Food Fair and made some terrific deviled eggs.


The next few pictures show off some of her craft entries. Here we have a pillow, a colored pencil drawing, a mixed media drawing (paint and colored pencil), a candle, and a greeting card.


A decorated flowerpot, jewelry (very nice earrings that she gave to me), a camp craft (the bracelet), a craft representing another country (the sombrero), and a sculpy clay pirate.


A skirt, a purse, a collection of patriotic sculpy clay pieces (a little person saluting the flag), and a handmade doll (Lucy, who is supposed to be a dog but I think makes a very fine cat).


Her poem. The theme for this year was "Great Americans."


Her decorated pumpkin, which came in second, and her tie-dyed pillowcase which came in third.


Her terrific rock collection, which earned her a blue ribbon. We studied rocks last year in science, so we had a nice collection to choose from. We looked up and labeled each one, except for the pinkish one second from the top left which we were not able to identify. It's definitely not quartz. Anyone know what it is?


I am so proud of Kathryn! She worked hard this year, and it showed.

Schmudgeon, what a terrific job you did this year. I love the pirate, and wish I had been there for the deviled eggs. As your cousin would say, they look "mmmm, tasty." Maybe I can get you to make me some next time we come to visit. Congrats!
