If you've never been to the Nutcracker Market in Houston, you still have three days left! Mom took me today and it was wild. There are so many unique gifts, and so many free food samples! I basically went from free food sample to free food sample, and I don't think I want to taste another jelly again.
One of the fun parts to things like this is checking out Texas fashion, and I'm so sad I didn't bring my camera! If you want to get a general idea, you can look up my rodeo post from last year. There's this great Texas look--big hair (but not 80s big), fancy jeans, boots, and bling. Not the usual bling. Think Southwest style: turquoise, chunky, sparkly. Belt buckles, sparkly shirts, huge necklaces. The tacky award went to a woman in a mu mu (not kidding) who wore a headband with its own mistle toe hanging in front of her face. It rocked.
You have three days--tomorrow, Saturday, and Sunday at the Reliant Center. Tickets are $11 at the door, and $10 if you buy them at Randalls. Parking is a nice $8, and I'd suggest walking and not waiting for the trolley. My favorite booth is the one with the fancy chocolate and caramel apples. YUM! Oh, and my favorite thing: all the men's bathrooms have been turned into women's bathrooms. :)

Is that like the Bizarre Bazaar here in Richmond? My mom tries to get me to go every year, but the masses of women in appliqué sweaters jostling you about is too much for me to handle. Not even the food sampling is enough to save it. Though, I haven't been in a couple of years, so this might be the year I lose my sanity and agree to go.
