Double Trouble this weekend!

While Jean is in SF this weekend, I'll be working the Seattle beat at the Urban Craft Uprising show this weekend! Jean is an old pro at working shows solo, but this is my first time, so come and keep me company!

I'll be towards the back by the food section - so don't miss me, and don't miss the homemade ice cream booth across the aisle!

R&L goods at the SF Renegade Craft Fair!

If you're in San Francisco this weekend - get yourself over to Fort Mason for the Renegade Craft Fair!

The lovely Jean & her lovely sister,Yilin will be working our booth with smiles and high fives for all!

We'll have Hoodies, Books, Wallets, and our Linen Button Scarves!

We love you, San Francisco!

Buy Olympia!

We're big fans of Buy Olympia - and now some of our notebooks and wallets are in their web shop!

They caught on early to this century's incarnation of the Arts&Crafts Movement and have been an important supporter of independent art&craft&design based businesses like ours.

Here's to them!

Pretty Spartan

Doesn't this look like a lovely place to just be? And shop?

We feel in fine company at Spartan, in Austin TX, who carry our notebooks and scarves in their beautifully curated shop on South Congress.

I spy our notebooks in the lower left!

And our Linen Button Scarves in the lower right!

Seattle buddies, Iacoli&McCallister necklaces on the right wall!

And some luminous totes from Meet Me Here - one of our NY Gift Fair booth buddies!

Good thing they also have a great web shop.

Getting Our Hunger On for Portland!

Hello! This is Jean!
Chika & I are getting ready to head down to Portland pretty soon to catch some cocktail hour at the ACE with all the vendors that will be at the Remodelista Market.
But besides all the excitement of the market itself, I'm also really excited about getting some awesome food in Portland!
I'm hoping with any downtime before & after the Remodelista Market that we'd just eat our way through Portland....

I saw this Remodelista post mentioning Olympic Provisions where they make homemade cured meat & etc all that goodness...this is why it got me started thinking about food!!
All this also got me thinking that I really want to try Tasty n Sons. My friend have been telling me about this place since they opened last year...and every time she talks about the all the dishes she tried for dinner & brunch there, we both would start to get hungry again.... all the while we're talking about this over dinner....
And THEN there's Le Pigeon ... for the past 4 years since I saw this place, I've made several attempts where it all failed since they were either closed for vacation or we just went at the wrong time. :(
would love to try their amazing looking dishes one of these days!!!
On top of all this, even at the day of the Remodelista Market there will be food by Koi Fusion, Oregon Ice Works, coffee by Ristretto Roasters and Bakeshop by Kim Boyce!!

I'm getting a food coma just looking and thinking about all this food...
I'm thinking that I need to come up with some major plan to hit all these places, and perhaps even do back to back meals...
So don't be surprised if you see a person lying on the side of the road in Portland at some point this weekend...most likely that will be me passed out from all the food that I'll be consuming....and there's no need to call 911....just stay calm and walk away....simply walk away...
