We were too late. The Cookie Crumble was apparently a huge success and there were no cookies left. Disappointed, we turned our attention to the tables filled with crafts, treats and wares made by students, teachers and moms from our community.
I'd almost forgotten there was going to be a craft fair in addition to the Cookie Crumble. I only regret that I didn't give myself more time and bring more cash.
As it happened, I gravitated to one particular vendor, a mom with a child at Longfellow. Marci's creations -- VertModerne -- are all very creative, many made from recycled bicycle tubing, plus jewelry made from words torn from dictionary pages and letters from Scrabble sets.
I even broke one of my own rules and bought something for myself, a pendant featuring the ultimate curmudgeons Statler and Waldorf from the Muppets.

That's so funny--I bought one of the Scrabble-tile necklaces from her too! I was actually trying to choose between the Statler and Waldorf one and the one I ended up getting. I ended up buying one with the British WWII poster, "Keep Calm and Carry On." So I guess I'm glad I left the Muppets for you. :)
