October 10, 2010 or 10-10-10
I couldn't resist posting on this unique date. How often does this happen where the month, date and year are all the same number? (I'm sure someone has calculated and documented this somewhere.)

The weather for the Red Bank Market was just beautiful. Sales were good—until the Tennessee football game got undeway—and I got a commission request (nice!). Friends from my guilds and other business acquaintances stopped by my tent. It was great to see everyone and catch up with people I don't get to see on a regular basis.

My booth was next to the "Accessories with Attitude" tent which had an exquisite assortment of hand-knit scarves and hats and colorful felted bags, pins and pouches made by two of my knitting friends. Local farmers had fresh, home grown produce at the market and the cupcake ladies from Scenic City Cakes offered bite-size samples of their delectable confectioneries. Don't these look yummy???

Best of all, I spent a beautiful October day outside, under a red tent with my husband, who helped with set up and sales. We're coming up on a 10-year anniversary this week. He's my favorite sweetie!
