Aaaah I do. I love especially to go to the market on the square that happens every Saturday in Madison……It is all local produce/cheeses and plants and numerous other stuff. I have always been a big fan of wild flowers and thanks to the market I have a balcony full of them………it’s a real dingly dell now and it makes me very happy to sit out there in the sun with my coffee and my cats.

some of my market lovelies. In the teracotta planter 2 different types of echinacea daisies. then thai basil and regular basil and the big white planter has 4 different kinds of lavendar and finally my tomato plants………..we’ve had tons of yummy toms of these tiny bushes, and everything smells wonderful.

I mentioned my cats love to sit on the balcony with me so I thought it only fair to plant a little something for them to appreciate so…..

tadah……I got two different types of catnip (my boys are the biggest nip heads in the world) and some cat grass for Floyd. It seems to be a big hit and I reckon if it grows well I can make cat nip toys for them and my etsy store.

Anyway back to my market story. There is also a street of vendors selling handmade goods and one booth’s clothing in particular I fell in love with, she’s called orangyporangy. Her tee-shirts, skirts and bags are fantastic. I got 2 tops, one for a friend and one for me…….can’t wait to wear it, it has little vintage buttons sewn to it and is very hipster friendly.

Ok ok i know you are thinking wait a minute, where is the stabby critter? why is Lulu telling us about some market in Madison? well just because it made me happy really, but you are right so with that I give you Spike…..
