I’m having an excess stencil crisis.
We are getting ready for our Third Annual Craft Show on August 13th. I truly love art and beautiful craft work. It reminds me of a time when I saw these three foreign individuals looking at a painting of Adam and Eve at the Carnegie Museum.
The first man had an English accent and said, “They look so calm, clearly they must be British!”.
The second person had a strong French accent and immediately disagrees. “No,no, they are beautiful and quite comfortable with their nakedness! They must be French!
The third individual takes his time before responding in a heavy eastern block accent, “They have no food, no shelter, nothing but an apple to eat, and they are being told this is paradise? They’re clearly Russian.”
Later that day when I was heading out of the museum to grab lunch over on Craig Street I saw where the museum had a set up for aspiring young artists to display some of their work. One of the artists, who was exhibiting his work for the first time was approached by a well known art critic that was in attendance and I decided to eavesdrop.
The critic asked to the young artist, “would you like my opinion on your work?”
“Yes, ” replied the artist.
“It’s worthless,” said the critic.
The artist replied, “I know, but tell me anyway.”
As we get ready for our craft show, we want to encourage people to register for their tables either at Lost and Found or using our online form: https://www.lostandfoundrx.com/lost-and-found-third-annual-craft-show/.
We should look at what else we have coming up in the not too distant future:

Now for the part everyone always asks about, the food! Our current soup for just a little longer is a delicious Buffalo chicken soup, and our current specialty ice creams are Orange Blossom and Graham Central Station. Also, we just started serving Golden Malted Waffles with an introductory price of just $2.75 for a big Belgian style waffle with butter, syrup, and powdered sugar.
Thanks and God bless
