bagels, duct tape and the osm hangout

Honestly, such a gorgeous Saturday morning. Too perfect for a casual trip downtown to the farmers' market with Lauren! What a wonderful day you have provided for us, Lord! We were so thankful, cuz the weather in Charlottesville has an incredibly bipolar nature....

Bought only the best bagels on the face of planet Earth;
Picture taken by none other than the nice bagel guy who offered. :)

'Olive Rosemary' - fresh out the oven!
Will you believe me if I said Bodos is nothing compared to this
chewy, soft, fresh bit of herbed goodness?

Best eaten plain. This is doughy awesomenesssssss....
HANDS DOWN, better than Bodos!

Our mission was to buy Lauren's little sister a birthday present (happy 15th birthday, Allie!) hopefully a cute pair of earrings, but the stall that she was eyeing on wasn't open. We did find a stall selling colorful 'duct-tape' hair accessories, all made by a young 11-year-old girl! Lauren chose two pins with orchids made out of navy blue duct tape, and another UVa-colored bowed hairpiece. I should have taken a picture of them!

I am absolutely in love with the trees in this country. Only the brightest yellow leaves - so pure, they're golden...

:)

Squirrel!!

The trees almost look FAKE. Soooo gorgeous!!!!

Remember the crepe place I told you about? :) The one where Rachel, Albert and I split a rich, nutella crepe... I just had to bring Lauren there since she'd never heard of it.

Split a sugar and lemon crepe! Sweet, eggy and slightly tart. :)

Grabbed a trolley back to UVa after that. No more strange men randomly asking for spare change.. we encountered one on the way there....

Ever wonder what's the appropriate way to act in these circumstances?

The Gooch/Dillard labyrinth now filled with golden trees...

Sigh. :)

Turned into some kind of hat party. Just discovered I have absolutely NO hat.

Trying to be efficient... trying to finish
chemistry assignment with a scarf on my head while
hanging out on Google+ with four other people at freaking
8.30 a.m. on a Saturday morning...

Sigh, I absolutely love the weekends... :)
