2026: Craft Show Weekend

Yesterday I spent the day with my sister at the Spring Craft Show at the Stride Center in Enid, Oklahoma. Lots of people came through and I got to pet some therapy dogs! Cute babies in strollers came along and we spent the day people-watching and catching up. She sold some of her wares and we talked to a lot of people.

I love these craft shows and the people who set up. It is fun to get acquainted with them and see what all they have to offer. There was a lot of talent in that room!

They normally have food vendors for lunch, but not yesterday. I had to call my husband and ask him to deliver some burgers. Otherwise, lunch was going to be cinnamon rolls and cheesecake. If anyone is interested, serve lunch next time and you might sell some things!

If you read the news, Enid had a tornado last week, but we were lucky that only about 50 properties were affected and there were 15 injuries, no fatalities. When you live in Tornado Alley, you take the wins. Enid has been my hometown for a long time, and I don’t see myself anywhere else.

I will be attending the OWFI Conference next weekend and then the Wakita 30th anniversary of the Twister movie on May 16. The movie was shot there, and they have great memories of that time. They have a museum and there will be actors from the movie, memorabilia, and storm chasers set up for the public to interact with.

Spring can be a busy time for craft shows and book sales. I will be busy and I hope you drop by my table.

What are you reading, writing, supporting, or creating this week?
