We have a lotta Jewish food, our brisket sandwiches, matzoh ball soup, latkes, sufganiyot, which are the jelly donuts.

And then we have a lotta kids activities as well.

I know last year you had such great food.

- Mm-hmm.

(Barb laughing) And then I go through all the vendors' stalls.

- Yeah, very smart.

- So tell us what some of the crafts are that you've got coming.

- So we have, of course, ceramics, a lotta jewelry, and some unique jewelry.

We have this woman who makes these really adorable rubber ducks.

(Mary laughing) We have like bath salts and soaps and candles and some items made from alpaca.
