Karina and Keegan hitched a ride with us so they could go to <a href="http://www.rosefestival.org/">The Rose Festival</a> for the day.&#160; It seems like there are lot&#39;s of new artists at Saturday Market but with Portland State University buying up a chunk of downtown, the market is being forced to move to a smaller area, and the move will displace about 90 sellers. This makes me more than a tad sad.</p><p>Anyway for today we enjoyed the music and had a nice lunch of ice tea with hummus, tabbouleh and falafel, lettuce, tomato and onion gyros smothered with Tzatziki Sauce. After lunch Sherry insisted on buying me a very neat mudcloth bag and a beautiful necklace pendant since she is working on my birthday and we cannot go to dinner and a play like we planned next weekend. She also gave me a 7&quot; Aztec Zodiac Calendar she bought me on her vacation. On my end of things, I finally got to give her the gifts I got for her Bday today too, ( an Amir Beso CD and a beautiful lacquer and inlaid pearl bento box), gift days are always fun whether you are giving or getting.<br />My loot:<br /><img src="http://a5.vox.com/6a00c2251ee118f21900d41437851d685e-500pi/" /><br /><img src="http://a5.vox.com/6a00c2251ee118f21900d09e71d50dbe2b-500pi/" /><br /><img src="http://a4.vox.com/6a00c2251ee118f21900d09e71d50cbe2b-500pi/" /></p><p>BTW, I found this great healthy eating web site, with lots of nice recipes.... in case you are looking for new things to cook: http://www.whfoods.com/index.html</p><p>Off to buy the cats some food, then I am sewing and painting tonight until my bedtime </p> <p style="clear:both;"> <a href="http://dejablu503.vox.com/library/post/life-is-good.html?_c=feed-rss-full#comments">Read and post comments</a> | <a href="http://www.vox.com/share/6a00c2251ee118f21900d4143e076c3c7f?_c=feed-rss-full">Send to a friend</a> </p> gifts birthday portland
