I hope you'll indulge me while I engage in a little bit of promotion. This weekend, Kamloops area residents have the opportunity to see what other creatives have been doing with their time in November by dropping in on an artisans' open house in Juniper Ridge. Among the participating artisans will be my sister, Daphne Sayler-Hust, a brilliant lampwork (glass jewellery) artist, along with many others displaying their beautiful products (including Kamloops' own Amanda Barker of Ovio Organico). Visit http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=14377&l=df8c2&id=559190263 for photos of Daphne's lampwork jewellery, and experience Christmas shopping that is both refreshing and inspiring at:
CHRSTMAS ON THE RIDGE
Friday, Nov. 16th - 5 - 8
Saturday, Nov. 17th 10 - 4
Location: 2808 Capilano Drive (Juniper Ridge in Kamloops)
Mulled cider and catered refreshments will be served as you shop in this show-home setting overlooking the Thompson River. Come and support your local entrepreneurs and if you yourself cannot attend, consider passing along this invite to someone else who might enjoy.
Thank-you and Merry Christmas!

Ah, I do love Christmas on the Ridge. This is a fantastic event to escape to, if you can. Try to head there tomorrow night or early Saturday morning because it gets pretty busy by the time the afternoon hits (and I'm stealing you Loopy Wrimers away for a writing session at 1:00, remember!).
I'll be there tomorrow night so you'll definitely catch me there. :)

Oh, just, yay! Do say hi to Daphne when you're there. And unless there's a meteor strike, I'll see in in Kelowna on Sunday.
