Frenzy


Every weekend seems to end with some sort of frenzied carpet shopping mission to the bazaar. Mostly, it is T with the full-on cut-throat FRENZIED shopping attitude. You do NOT want to get in this woman's way! However, this week when we arrived, our little carpet shop man was not present at his shopfront. The boy from a nearby shop brought us tea to enjoy while we waited. However, S (pictured) simply could not wait and crawled up into the piles of carpets and started unrolling them herself! What I have neglected to tell you in prior posts is how terribly dusty and heavy these carpets are! Anyway, as usual, we left with another huge pile... T and S's living rooms are now almost completely transformed into opium dens... as for me, I only bought one small and somewhat raggy, but very pretty floral carpet which may end up in Saint John, New Brunswick someday.
