Jaliscos' Mexican Food and Halloween Art at Waterfront Park

This past weekend, Portland Saturday Market had a Jack-o-Lantern carving and painting contest.

Here are the winning Jack-o-Lanterns made by Sara from Jaliscos at the Portland Saturday Market food court, where Sara and her husband sell all natural Mexican food..  One would never expect that a food vendor would have such artistic talent as well.

Well, this weekend, after you have had a taste of Jaliscos' food, step across the aisle to Mesman Images . . . we don't have Sara's talent but we have a different one.

An out of the ordinary sight captured at Portland Saturday Market

Last Sunday, as we were standing in the back of our booth at Portland Saturday Market, we heard some children's voices ". . . for this food, thank you God".  Turning around, we found these three boys in front of three small piles of popcorn, praying.  

Their dad introduced us to 6 year old Angel, Christian 5, Ricky 3, and Dominique, the two year old, who decided to put off the popcorn for a nap.

Once you have strolled through Portland Saturday Market, stop at Mesman Images, row 200 booth 216 and check out our necklaces and wall decor.
