Market Friday Around Town

in The LIFESTYLE LOUNGE4 years ago

Hello friends! I hope you had a great week! Market Friday is a fun weekly event, hosted by the lovely @dswigle. She is taking a few weeks off but I’m sure people will still post, as there is a large community participating! Check it out by clicking the tag and you will find fun market posts from around the world.

For this week’s Market Friday post, I have a few posts from different venues. The first is from a cute display outside the local pet good store.

The next few are from a local brewery wher a friend and I ended up ordering a beer and then taking it outside to sit near a heat lamp, as most of the people inside were not wearing masks.

The brewery was super cute!

And finally, the last three are from a grocery store. I just loved the look of all the bright orange pumpkins in the sun!

I love fall decorations. It helps deal with the doldrums once summer has ended.

Thank you so much for taking part in #MarketFriday. You did not disappoint!! I am so happy that there were some of you that put in a post this week anyway. It was strange to be sitting here and not having to put together a post for tomorrow night. But, I do apologize for being so late getting the replies back so late this week. I failed to say last week that #MarketFriday has been going on for three and a half years and I have missed a couple, but, very few. Normally, if I am on vacation without internet, I try to find some to post, but, like I said, there were a few that missed. As you can see, I didn’t tip this week!!! It has nothing to do with you, but, they changed the way I buy it and post it, so I will be looking into that!!! How can I post and comment without the tip? They all bounced back to me this week, so my apologies!

I hope you are all taking the time to collect new pictures for #MarketFriday while we are taking the time off from the challenge. As I said, feel free to collect some pictures at the markets or other places. I am not going anywhere, posting as usual, and will be back, but, for the challenge to be done right, it takes a fair amount of time. :)

The entire challenge has migrated from a stroll through a market to a cultural extravaganza. ! It really surprised me, but, also delights me to know how much effort people put into it. It pointed out our differences in the beginning, but, then, it really started showing how many things our cultures share. When the day is done, it shows off how human we all are and how we basically all care about our families and others. I love the experience of it all. I appreciate the love and support given to #MarketFriday! Thank you! Truly!
Your participation adds a piece of your world, and I have to say, people are interested in is seeing it. This entire challenge has opened up the world to me and so many others. Thank you again for being a part of all this!

I hope you have a wonderful week!

So true! It's really so heart-warming, isn't it? And I think these are outlets that we need - ways to feel connected and be a part of something. Who knew it could be a community that is dispersed across the world?

So true! And who would have ever guessed it would have been a #MarketFriday? Not me! Not the way it started, but I am loving how it has migrated!

Thanks so much again! Love to you!

#MarketFriday loves you!
