Third Sunday Market

In keeping with this year's theme -- All Things New Again -- we will make our first trip to the THIRD SUNDAY MARKET this weekend in Bloomington, IL. This is a sentimental fav for me -- used to shop it all the time with my mother-in-law back when I still called Chicagoland home. I always went away with a van full of treasures -- the shopping is awesome! So make plans to join us this Sunday, May 18, 8 am to 4 pm, at the Interstate Center, 2301 W. Market St. We'll make sure YOU go home with a van full of treasures! Check Facebook tomorrow for photos of  just a few of the finds that are coming. Will post there Saturday about where our space is -- it's outside, but that's all I know now. Stayed tuned for details!! xo

HAPPY EASTER!

During Lent, read three of the BEST books on faith, ones that really help. "The Cause Within You," "Wild at Heart" and "Captivating" will help you if you've ever wondered why you have the nagging sensation that there must be something more. Take a look -- you won't be disappointed! We are off this week for Easter, then head WEST to Iowa next week. Stay tuned. xo -- Sandy and Joe
