CW: Profanity Y’all may remember my friend and former coworker Maggie, who came out to visit me at my last weekend at the Renaissance Festival. Maggie is a very talented content creator in her own right (Check out her travel blog Broke Girl Abroad and her makeup Youtube Channel), which makes her unwavering support of […]
Read More Maggie the Meme MakerI was only out one day last weekend, but it was a lot. On Sunday: A fairy with black paint all over their hands and arms came in and started to touch the yarn… A couple of teenagers started spinning the wheel in-between demos. My middle school voice came out: “Don’t touch the spinning wheel, […]
Read More The Final Adventures at the Ren FestMy last three day weekend! I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: This year has been weird to boot. The weather felt like it was the first weekend, not the sixth. We always do better sales when it’s cooler, so that’s a disappointment. It did get a bit chilly on Monday, but it […]
Read More Final Adventures at the Ren Fest: Sixth WeekendI never thought I’d say this, but I am ready to be done at the Renaissance Festival. Sure, I am trying to enjoy my last few days out there, because it is enjoyable! This last weekend was just full of really belligerent people (including one very nasty cop), and I know a lot of it […]
Read More Final Adventures at the Ren Fest: Fifth WeekendWelcome back to your regularly scheduled block of Renaissance Festival Madness™. I need to talk about my spinning this week. You may recall a breed study I wanted to partake in over the summer, and then life got the better of me. Well, no time like the present. I grabbed the Shetland and went out […]
Read More The Final Adventures at the Ren Fest: Fourth WeekendThis weekend was particularly trying. Not only was it hot, but I had to move. I wasn’t even out there Saturday. Luckily, my mom was able to go in my place. What I found particularly funny about this was when I asked my mom if anything of note happened for the blog, she shrugged and […]
Read More The Final Adventures at the Ren Fest: Third WeekendThe second weekend at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival is typically the worst. It’s usually boiling hot, and it usually lines up with the opening weekend of football. Both of which were true this year, but for whatever reason, it wasn’t so bad! I don’t know if I’m seeing it through the rosy glasses of […]
Read More The Final Adventures at the Ren Fest: Second WeekendWe’re back! Even as we still face down a pandemic, I have to say it was so nice to be out there again. Maybe that’s because, as many as you know, this will be Wolf ‘n’ Sheep’s Clothing last season at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival. Many people have told me I could find another […]
Read More The Final Adventures at the Ren Fest: First WeekendObviously, it’s not the winter holidays (but that is a close second). Fall is the best season: harvesty foods, hot drinks, hoodies, spooky times, and, of course, the Kansas City Renaissance Festival. We are returning to an in-person event, even in the face of a literal plague. While I am worried, I’m also excited. I […]
Read More The Most Wonderful Time of the YearThis year, Worldwide Spin in Public Day snuck up on me. I normally don’t have to plan for it, ’cause I’m always spinning out at Faire. Of course, that wasn’t an option this year. I’m not too mad about that, though. It always felt like cheating a bit, since the spirit of the holiday is […]
