I've got my eye on you. & you & you & you & you

Summers in Cleveland don't last very long. It was shorter than usual this year as I spent the month of July away from here. Upon my return I discovered a new side of myself, I learned how easy it is to be a merchant. The Open Air at Market Square was my venue this summer, where I shared a tent with Christina, a henna tattoo artist and sold my wares from Turkey every Saturday. It was quite an enjoyable experience, entreprenueurs all around of different stripes, music and dancing. What most caught my eye was the eyeball man, selling eyeballs. Clever. Only in Cleveland. m

axes and knives

Marian graciously helped me at market, and we discovered that weaponry sells!
