Sock Monkey Saturday

There’s an old Chinese saying that suggests a person hasn’t lived a full life until they have built a house, grown a garden and raised a family. I’d add “made a sock monkey” to that list. On Saturday afternoon, a large part of the Baltimore’s population turned out at  AVAM to satisfy this requirement for full living.

It was packed.

Avam provided a pattens, stuffing, needles and buttons for their annual “Sock Monkey Saturday” event. People brought there own socks.

We hung out at AVAM for a couple of hours but left before they were complete to get pizza at Angelo’s.

Here’s some of our monkeys:

    It’s called the “big slice” and it’s about $4.00 and it’s really a medium pizza. The best, too.
