“Goodness is the only investment
that never fails.”
Henry David Thoreau
I logged over 750 miles this weekend...
Traveled to Na-Da Farm
for the Petit Flea Market.....
It was worth every mile!
It was, indeed, very very good.
Good friends

It must have been amazing to meet your new friends
from the blogsphere (is that a word?). I'm so
glad you're home safely; that was a long drive.
Certainly looks like it was worth the trip. Can't wait to see your treasures. Love you.

Now that's what I should have been doing! Looks like soooo much fun. I would have loved to meet all of you too. Maybe another time:)
Ooh, what fun! Can't wait to see what you bought!
I wish I wish I wish I could have gone. Cali is a bit too far though...and I don't fly. I would have bought all of those seashells for 25 cents each!!!! That Patisserie is glorious!
Oh, what a fun weekend you had filled with fun and friendship. Such great photos too. Worth the drive and nothing better than a small road trip to pass the weekend. XO
Dear Sweet Suzanne, You my dear are full of GOODNESS in more ways than one!! Thank you so much for your wonderful, sweet comment on my Bringing back Lovely post this morning!! It meant so much to me and then when I read that you are an Alexander Stoddard fan I said, " I knew it" I read her book years ago and have many of her books since. I did not want the first one to end. It was so full of simple lovely ways to appreciate everyday life. I will always remember having favorite colored pencils on your desk,just to have pretty to look at!! Oh how I love that. I knew we were kindred spirits, I just knew it. Have a Lovely, Luxurious, Pretty Monday,Kathysue
Hello Suzanne!
I had to stop by after reading Parisienne Farmgirl's post. It looks like you guys had such a wonderful, marvelous time! Such creativity!
And I LOVE the name of your blog!
Happy Thoughts,
Jen
Okay, I'm already thinking I would have needed to set up camp to linger over everything. Love the rooster!
PS. Thank you so much for your kind comments on my not your typical day at the office. Every time we hear the Search and Rescue copters our hearts race...
(left a comment early this morning.....but it has disappeared!)...but I'll say it again! that I had so much fun with you and your absolutely charming friends while you ate lunch at the "Burnt Barn Cafe".....your enthusiasm and smile are simply infectious! It was so great to have met you....and I KNOW we'll see each other again....
for sure!!!
great pics btw (I linked you on my sidebar!!)
What beautiful images - and what a beautiful day! I wish I were there...it all looks so wonderful.

Brenda
These photos are magnificent! Looks like a fun weekend. Can't wait to see your treasures!
Lovely, lovely, lovely pics Suzanne!!! It was such a pleasure to meet you! You are beautiful and delightful!!! And I can't wait to see what you bought...I was too busy grabbing my own stuff that I didn't really get to see what everyone else bought :) :) :)
Hugs ~

Gorgeous pics! Oh wow, it looks like it was so worth all of the driving! What a happy, lovely weekend! XO!
Looks like a good time was had by all! I thought of you today as I discovered at my new house a large hedge(privet?) which I had no clue what it was is actually some kind of gardenia. The whole hedge is covered in white flowers that smell wonderful.

Oh what beautiful pictures! It looks like it was well worth the miles. Friends and finds with a cinnamon roll thrown in. How fun!
The image of that salad with the chocolate chip cookie really spoke to me...I LOVE that! (I would do that too.) What a fun trip and I really enjoyed all those images and seeing you with all the other bloggers too! Looking forward to the reveal of your purchases. ~Lili
Hi Suzanne - it looks like you had an amazing weekend! What great pics! I can't wait to see what you brought home! xx
I get my photos from various places, I don't take all of them - there are so many talented people out there that offer their work - I also use magazine photos when it's allowed. Thanks, Jenn
Everything looks great...all totally drool worthy. Can't wait to see what you ended up with!

Oh P&H!
What a delightful event!
Looks just something out of a Country Living magazine!
I'm with FairMaiden...I would have snatched up all of the seashells for 25 cents each!
And I would have had to have a LARGE cupcake!
And I know that was so much fun seeing your friends!
Can't wait to see what all you found!
Your pictures are lovely....just like YOU!
Thank you for all of the LOVE that you leave on Blooming on Bainbridge!
I'm so lucky to be getting to know you!

OK, I'm going to try this for the third time, and hopefully I won't move so fast I forget to enter the verification word (again.)
In brief -- wonderful to spend time with friends -- especially at a great place (with baked goods and cupcakes!)
I've been away for a while so I missed this post. I wanted to go to Nada's Farm sale so badly! It looks like you had a grand time. Thanks for sharing your photos!
