Street vendor

There were lots of vendors selling little wooden dollhouses, and others that were selling mosses by the tubs full. This lady was selling both. I couldn't figure out what was going on. (see next picture)


How cool are these? To have your Nativity Scene framed by fresh mosses, lichens and bromeliads? Can you guess how badly I wanted to bring some home with me?

There's a half of a bobbin's progress to report tonight. But tomorrow - wow. The Greater Los Angeles Area Spinning Guild is hosting a presentation by Dr. Elizabeth Barber, author of "Women's Work, the first 20,000 years" and "Mummies of Urumchi". I'll have lots to report!
