Market Friday Give Thanks and Bookstores, Not Necessarily in that Order
Be Thankful. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving
that the highest appreciation is not to utter words,
but to live by them.
#WeInterruptThisMessageToBringYouMarketFriday!!
Flowers.There must always be flowers to color my world. This picture is dedicated to the #ColorChallenge by @Kalemandra who colors my world every day.
Once upon a time hits you right in the face. There is an old Brownie camera sitting on top of a stack of books, vintage posters, Candlestick telephones. I even saw an old singer sewing machine. I never even asked if they were for decoration or for sale, but, I will bet that they were there to set the stage for the books. I really liked the old license plates.
Old books are everywhere. I love the feel, the touch, the way they smell. I do love my kindle, but, nothing will replace the binding of a book and the words framed in between those pages.
STOP!! BRAIN TEASER AHEAD!!

What is a fair way for the men to toss the coin and decide who gets to keep it?
I have always loved books, they take me on an adventure, to another world, doing things I have never done, seeing things I have never seen.
What is your favorite book of all time?
What kind of books do you like to read?
Tell me! Tell me! Tell me, do!
And just like that, my shopping is done. Until next time! I hope you had fun today! As always, I want to thank you for taking the time to visit and participating in #MarketFriday! The effort put into gathering and putting a post together is appreciated. Thank you for sharing your part of the world with all of us! Happy Friday! Have a wonderful weekend! Have a most fabulous day!

Fridays are all about the #MarketFriday Challenge! Looking to take part in it? Here is how:
How to Participate:
1. Go to the market! Any market will do! Food, Clothing, Plant or Animal, if you wish. You can go to the zoo or an art auction. Anywhere or anything that you pay money for a service. I once went to a nail salon.
2. Take pictures! Be creative (or not)
3. Tell us a little bit about the market, what brought you here?
4. Post the picture(s)
5. Don’t forget to hashtag it! #MarketFriday by @dswigle
6. Drop the link to your post here so I can easily find them
So the joy may touch your soul
i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to ‘okay’ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,
"everywhere"
"everywhere"

I can connect with you in this feeling for books!
My first book was "Nacho Lee", with which my mother taught me to read, I can never forget that smell and the images that made me travel to other worlds. Since then I have read even in secret at night, after my parents say "is enough, turn off the light and go to sleep", then I managed to keep reading.
One of the literary works that I loved is One Hundred years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Magical realism, is a really incredible book
Have a nice day @dswigle
Oh, that sounds awesome! I think all of us readers did the same thing, hiding deep beneath the sheets so the light would not peek out.
The good old days when we were pushed off to bed! Now, there are days where I am begging it to be bedtime. :) Books have always been a part of my life and it used to be such a joyous occasion to get a book for a gift. I had a favorite one that was a DK book about butterflies. Oh, how I loved paging through the beauty of it all.
Thank you for stopping by and saying hello, leaving your words behind.

Happy Thanksgiving to you darling Denise!
All your posts are always interesting and exciting.
Who doesn't like books?
I love fiction, especially the works of H. G. Wells.
Since childhood I wanted to have a time machine :-)
And this is my new post for #marketriday
I agree~!! We all love books and I just cannot understand all the stores closing! How sad for me and everyone else. But, thank God for second-hand stores, right?
I want to thank you for always giving me a special post for #MarketFriday and for being so supportive. Thank you! Thank you!
As always, your continued support means a lot to me. I wish you a wonderful weekend!
#MarketFriday loves you!

Happy Thanksgiving to you @RossFletcher!!
We do love our bookstores, don't we??? :) I have started to look for more! LOL I hope you had a great Thanksgiving yourself! Have a wonderful evening and thanks for stopping by and saying hello!

Hello again :)
Yes ! Love those old small bookstores. I wish i had photos of my favorite before the owner passed. It was stacked to the ceiling everywhere. He listened to jazz all day and was the funnest guy to sit and talk with
Oh, he does sound fun!!! That reminds me of the guy who owns this shop. They are characters! Ahhhh. How fortunate we are to know such cool people!
Thanks, Ross! I hope you have a great night!
It was the most unique and unusual place in Seal Beach by far. That little town is nice but sort of stodgy and overly nosey in your business sort of area . He had long grey hair and was very much a beat generation type of guy. i really miss him. I wish i could have asked him more about his life when he was younger

I am thankful for how smooth making thanksgiving dinner went and those I got to spend some time with. It really is the people that make the holiday more than anything else. I’ve been quite blessed this year.
Have a great Thanksgiving. Cheers!
Oh, isn't that the truth! I must say that everything went well for me also and the best part, of course, is the bonding time with family and friends that comes with the holiday. And while I get to spend lots of time with them throughout the year, it is always special during the holidays.
Thank you always and onward towards more Holiday fun!
Thanks for stopping by and always leaving such awesome comments!
