Wandering in Wildwood Part 1

My guy and I decided to get out for some fresh air, much needed after being homebound for two weeks, and headed out for a nice lunch and some wandering around Wildwood, home of one of our favorite antique malls.

This mall is huge, has lots of vendors and for the most part very reasonable prices. I saw several good-condition vintage quilts that tempted me, but I'm trying not to add to my collection, which is near to overflowing its closet as it is.

I loved seeing all the Halloween-themed decor the vendors put out. You can never overdo Halloween for me. :)

One booth had some blind date with a cookbooks! I love this idea. The vendor packaged them with pretty potholders and hand-painted bookmarks. This would be a great gift for anyone who likes to cook.

I considered doing another Yellow Brick road patchwork pattern, but I might go with a split rail fence like this one.

The story begins with the death of firefighter Kim Ja-Hong (Cha Tae-hyun) who jumps out of a burning building with a child in his arms. The kid lives, but he dies at the scene. Two strangers inform him that he has passed away right on schedule, and toss him into a vortex that takes him to the world of the afterlife, where he meets his three guardians: Gang-rim (Ha Jung-woo), Haewonmak (Ju Ji-hoon) and Lee Deok-choon (Kim Hyang-gi). At the gates of the afterlife Ja-Hong learns that he is considered a paragon (an exemplary person who lived a noble and self-sacrificing life) and is eligible to be reincarnated -- but there's a catch. First he has 49 days to make it through seven hells in which he will be judged on his sins. His three guardians will help and defend...
