As most of you know, I grew up in the 70's. (although some would wonder if I will ever grow up).
There was a song that I loved by the Steve Miller Band called Big Ole Jet Airliner. I had a Friend, who was a girl, who I considered pretty smart, Blonde, that thought the song was "Big Ole Hair Net Liner." No joke.
Speaking of Big Ole Jet Airliners, in two weeks from today the Cosmo Cricket team will be embarking on a trip of Biblical proportion, like Moses of old.
We will unite and in some cases reunite, with billions of women everywhere as they flock from various parts of the world to come and visit with their favorite manufacturers, take paper crafting classes, do make and takes, get away with their friends, and bring people like us goodies.
Last year, I received three pair of socks, 2 red apples, a granola bar, a Heath Bar, a Cinnabon (yum yum), a bag of kettle chips ( I love Kettle Chips), Juju fruits, A stick of Gum, a map of the Mall of America,and an unedited version of John Wayne's " The Cowboys" on VHS. Someone even offered lunch.
Julie received a ton of great things too, although I think my bag was bigger than hers.
People are so nice to us when we come and we feel like family.
We also participate in something that we call, Crop Around Town. This happens after the make and takes are finished for the day and it's where we go to a local Archivers store and hang out, eat snacks, teach a class, tell of our adventures and miss-adventures, and giveaway prizes. This always fills up fast and we love it.
Want to see the class were teaching?
Take a look:
It will be fun! Hope to see you there!
Have a great day!
