Last Friday was a beautiful thing at the store.  We had our Easter Bonnet Contest and there were many a wondrous things to behold.  Carolee, not to be outdone by her bonnet last year, came waltzing in as some sort of pagan,  Merovingian , Easter princess complete with a poem. Thanks Carolee for helping us fulfill our mission of making the world a more beautiful place.

P.S.  Just so you know,  I have some fantasy of a huge party on the Friday before Easter with the streets of downtown Eugene filled with live music and bonnet topped folk  dancing like dervishes to the sounds of fiddles and accordions while sipping all manner of green and pink drinks.  So this could be the beginning of something big.
