Lobster Fest, 2013

Headed up north to Collingwood for the weekend a few weeks ago.  

Got to relax in town and made the mistake of eating too much before catching our yellow school bus to Thornbury for Lobster Fest.

An arena full of happy lobster eating folk!

We each gobbled up two whole lobsters, three types of salad, a baked potato and a roll... and imbibed a plenty!

Little bit wrong, but had to do the nails up appropriately, of course.  We named him Percy.  

Was a good time with great friends!  Thanks to the C. sisters for hosting the group of us.

Jewels galore

I've taken so many photos of jewels that I have yet to share on the blog.  Apologies if you have already seen these pics already, but they are so fun, I had to share again!  For more info on any of these pieces, check out the website, or send us a note.

I can hardly believe that we are a day away from saying goodbye to 2012.  This year flew by...  I seem to say that more and more, which means I must be getting old...  or having fun... I prefer the latter, though maybe it's a bit of both.  This past month has been a lovely one.... Fall is always the busiest MoonRox time of year, and this year seemed particularly more busy than others, but we mixed in as many good people and as many festive follies as possible.  Here is a load of photos with some quick notes.    

Moonshadow Bracelet.

 Beautiful, and edible I believe, Christmas balls

Yummy treats on cold days.

 Finally a couple moments for some neglected tasks. 

Drawing I did for our school Christmas card back in 1989, waaaay before the day of accessible colour printing.

 Necklace in the works.

 Cool lights in a retail window.

And there we are... just about to wrap up 2012. Now for New Years Eve!  Any fun plans?

Oh!  And don't forget that our BOXING DAY SALE ends today!  The website apparently needed a wee holiday, but is back to work.  She is up and running smoothly.  Have a gander over here!
