Today, the day after Thanksgiving, has been dubbed Black Friday by retailers around the country.  This is supposed to be the busiest day for Christmas and holiday shopping.  The sales at most stores are in full force.  Some of the stores opened yesterday, on Thanksgiving!  I am not a believer in all this frenzied purchasing!  Also, I like to focus my shopping on local, hand-made items.  Larry and I are visiting Crafted at the Port of Los Angeles in San Pedro today!

If you are shopping this weekend, have fun, be smart and don't overdue it!
