Stuff you find from last year's faire

[Valiss]

So faire is coming up in a couple of weeks and I'm digging through my closet looking for my gear - when I happen to stumble upon some treasure!  You see, sometimes I buy or make a new items at faire and after the season I pack it all up for next year.  But very often I'll forget about the new item and get excited about it all over again when I unboxed it after a long break.

This year I discovered 3 or 4 bottles of Loki and 1 large bottle of Demon Rum I had made in August of last year!  Considering the ingredients, I'm sure it will still be good to drink, don't you? Anyway what a great surprise for faire this year!

Haver you ever discovered a surprise after unpacking your faire gear?

Hahahaha, yes actually.  The best things I have found so far are a pair of fairy wings and a dress.  Looking at those items jump started my memory of what I did during the run of that season.

Not purchased at, but purchased for, faire - Lucius Malfoy's swagger stick, found in a corner of the closet while doing my packing up.  Come on, TRF!

Aye, this is one of Faire's pleasure... finding a piece of garb you've forgotten or a memory, sometimes... like a favour granted you by a friend you've not seen since last year at Faire.

Faire ended, last September.  This June, I pulled out my stuff to look for a few specific items to wear in parades.  In my leather pouch, the following items:

1.  Half a book of food coupons
2.  Lighter I have been looking for
3.  Two smokes left in a pack
4.  And a $5 bill.

The other night one of the cats comes running into the living room. He playing with something red. It's a fresh cayenee  pepper, he bites it and jumps back. He plays with it a while until he knocks it under the dvd shelf. I move the case and find the pepper, a ton of hair ties, and a faire favor.

I found a $20 bill and about $13 in gold one dollar coins in a belt pouch that I haven't seen since last season.  Beer money!

Thats it! I gotta go look in my garb box and my pouch. (keep your fingers crossed)

My favorite things to rediscover are anything written - I have random secret admirer notes, notes from friends about how much we'll miss eachother, invitations to parties, letters of advice and words of wisdom.  And I find them everywhere - in pockets, baskets, jewelery boxes, all over.  And I should really put them all in a scrapbook, but I'm lazy, and anyways, I like re-discovering them!
