If Missouri is not known as the Salsa state, it should be.
On a perfectly beautiful day I attended the 20th Anniversary of the "Best of Missouri Market." It was held in large white tents on the grounds of Missouri's Botanical Garden. It attracted hundreds of people on the last day and probably thousands for the three days it was opened. There was plenty of food and wine sampling, but everywhere we turned we found a different variety of Salsa samples
sweet, mild and hot!
In terms of examples of Missouri crafts, I was disappointed, though three craftsmen did catch my attention. Joseph Farmer created metal sculptures out of ordinary things like hedge sheers, old cameras and musical instruments. Nena Galloway Potts designed imaginative and delicate jewelry. Vic Barr made colorful and sleek fountain pens out of wood.
Except for these few craft artists, Salsa samples seemed to steal the show.
