Love To Your Mother | The May 12 Dose Market
Moms are the best. And we hooked her up (!) on Sunday, May 12 — Mother’s Day! Here’s how our 50 May Dosers did it:
1. They dosed out the sweet stuff. There was a lot of “yes, please!” a la our little friend below at the GrownUp KidStuff, Veruca Chocolates, Confections Else and Chocolate Twist tables!
2. They kept it clean. North Coast Organics and Purple & Bumble know how to rock it out, au naturel.
3. They made sure we ate breakfast. Mom always said it’s the most important meal of the day, so whether you chose savory cheese grits and a bacon flight from Bakin’ & Eggs or a sweet buttery brioche from Eclair Bakery and Patisserie, no one could say we didn’t listen!
4. They made sure snacks were top-notch. We Rahm-nom-nomed with PoshCorn, sipped on iced coffee horchata from Crop to Cup and hit the homemade jackpot with bread and cheese from Baker & Nosh.
5. They thought about everyone. Ladies, gents and kids alike scored some sweet new accessories from Plank, Robin Richman and Cursive Design.
6. They made our homes more beautiful. SOLO Home Design, August General Store, Up in the Air Somewhere and Alapash Home & Terrariums doled out serious design.
7. They kept pantries stocked. With summer upon us the opportunities to entertain are endless. Shoppers loaded up on the good stuff from Pinch Spice Market, Mess Hall & co., The Scrumptious Pantry, and Rare Bird Preserves.
8. They embraced color. New mama Samantha Sleeper kept the cool factor high with gorgeous prints and vibrant colors — be sure to visit her pop-up shop on Oak St, opening tomorrow, May 17th and running through the 26th.
9. They made sure to showcase family recipes. Shaman by Chilam Balam made many DOSE-goers happy with mama’s perfectly filling and absolutely refreshing tostada recipe. Oh, and tamales. SO delish!
10. The kept spirits high. The gin and all-natural Bruce Cost Ginger Ale cocktail and Central Pickling and Journeyman Distillery picklebacks stole the show.
11. They made sure it was fun for everyone. Leah Ball provided so much pretty and Fotio kept smiles bright all day long.
And just like mom, the Dosers, as they always do, made the magic happen, all day, everyday.
Not to mention that A Muse made sure everyone wore flowers in their hair!
See you next month for our 2nd birthday party — we’re turning it up to 11 for our celebration, with two levels of serious indoor-outdoor dosage.
Get Dosed on June 9 from 10am – 4pm at the River East Art Center! See you there!

The sweetness at DOSE, May 12!
We did it once and we had so much fun we’re doing it again — May 12 is Mother’s Day and it’s a DOSE dedicated to the prettiest, the sweetest and the most divine. Dive in! 
HOW TO DOSE MAY 12: A PRIMER
Head straight for Robin Richman and dig into the ultra-special cache she’s put together for the most fashionable ladies in the city. Cannot miss this DOSE of Robin Richman. Can. Not. Miss.
Stop by and say hello to new mama Samantha Sleeper and pick up an endlessly feminine piece from her new collection, debuting at DOSE in prints and treatments that are totally divine.
DIY@DOSE: Make it your day to be adored, crowning yourself or someone you love with a handmade floral wreath. A Muse has all the fresh flowers, greenery and inspiration to get busy!
Last month DOSE-goers showed us their creativity by making fantastic works of fun guided by the fine artists at ACRE. Stop by and admire the work (and have a fantastic laugh!) in the cafe.
Be good boys and girls and eat your breakfast: mama never said it couldn’t be a jalapeno, honey and mesquite bacon flight from Bakin’ & Eggs. Also, biscuits, gravy + fresh OJ.
Ready for a sweet? Go straight for a raspberry-rose or pistachio cream puff from Eclair Bakery & Patisserie or try the brioche filled with chocolate custard cream fit for a queen.
At the very first DOSE, Crop To Cup Coffee served up an iced horchata that has a fan base all its own. Sweet, chocolately and bright, it’s the best caffeine hit ever. And it’s back May 12.
Tea more your thing? How about a tisane? SenTEAmental Moods doses small batch summer blends for wellness rich with hibiscus, rosehips and bouquets of gorgeous blossoms.
We’re quite sure you’ll fall in love with Cursive Design‘s printed silk and brass pieces and hand-hammered, precious metal pendants from jules., customized for you right at the Market.
And we absolutely adore the delicate beauty of Up in the Air Somewhere‘s limited edition, handmade ceramics. This dishware collection is clean, modern, beautiful and sunkissed with gold leaf.
Pretty and picnic ready: double-duty is something we can’t get enough of. KraeO debuts the Odessa, a big, lightweight cotton scarf that doubles as a blanket for impromptu park visits.
And this DOSE is plentiful with all kinds of cozy. DOSE CAUSE Hand & Cloth sells cotton throws, coverlets, and silk throws made with gorgeous vintage sari cloth.
Making makeup quite elegant, Naked Elements is a premium vegan mineral cosmetics line rich in good stuff for your skin and a subtle shimmery finish that’s perfect for the summer season.
We know, we know, what is DOSE (read: life) without cheese? Baker & Nosh blend Kilgus Farms cream and buttermilk for the perfect tang with a pinch of salt to punch up the flavor.
And be ready to say “Cheese!” too. The old-timey Fotio booth lets you be the photographer, equalling all kinds of fun for lovers, families and those looking for a new Facebook profile pic.
Oh, Veruca! Can’t wait for you to try Veruca Chocolate‘s newest flavors: lavender caramels, almond-cherry and pistachio candy bars and chocolate tiles studded with Maldon sea salt.
Meet new friends by getting swooped up in a SideCar on your way to the Market. Haven’t heard? Ride-sharing is where it’s at! Download the app and ride free with code ILOVEDOSE!
Your mama’s got sauce! But seriously, she needs this, we all do, and no one can help but eat it out of the jar. All-natural, GrownUp KidStuff makes every day better. Love being a grownup!
CALLING ALL COOKS! You’ve got mad skills. Write up your masterpiece recipe at Curbside Splendor and sign it with your autograph. We’re gathering to release a very special collection.
We’ll be back with more details next week!
In the meantime, think tamales, tostadas and delicious, delicious cocktails.

April 14, 2013 DOSE: Sunny Side Up!
Oh April, we know you’re all about the spring showers but we sure do appreciate your giving us a sunny Sunday! Here’s how we made the most of April’s DOSE, sunny side up:
Little and big, DOSE-goers came out in droves, ready to eat, shop, laugh, lounge and score.
Heritage Bicycles General Store kitted out a seriously awesome bike just for DOSE, built on the DOSE floor (!).
It was nothing but silliness and smiles in the Heritage Littles Corner, thanks to Melissa of A Little Photo Studio. Check out the full album of the cool kids here!
Whatever your drink — spirits, spritzer or good old H2O — there was something for everyone to sip on at this DOSE compliments of Oliver Winery, Femme du Coupe and Next Star Vodka.
Beauty Dosers Lovebomb Lacquer and Morgan Marie Beauty painted our lips and nails in the latest shades of Spring.
We all rocked out to the musical stylings of The Haute Closet and signed up for monthly vinyl delivery fromt the uber-curators of Vinyl Me, Please.
We scored new Spring gear from the sartorial savants at Vividbraille and Sir & Madame. Don’t miss this month’s A DOSE OF video, featuring both!
We delighted in Chef Thai’s spring rolls, tamarind ribs, papaya salad and coconut lemonade — get another DOSE anytime at Embeya!
How could anyone resist a Très Awesome Events photo op with fabulous floral crowns and accessories?
Speaking of adornments, The River East Art Center was ablaze with the light reflecting off all the sparkle from Dorus Mhor, Winifred Grace, Chikahisa Studio, Laura Lombardi and Toki – who else saw the DOSE rainbow?
Exploring Remi Canarie‘s first collection was like stepping inside a seashell. The colors, tailored jackets, louche knit pants: we’re 100% smitten and can’t wait for the next collection.
AP and NOV made sure our vintage quota was met with gusto — bold prints and statement accessories galore/
FoundRe: is the perfect place to find homes for our unframed art.
Walnut Cardamon cookies from Malika at ByMdesserts made for a sweet mid-shopping snack.
As did Très Jolie Pâtisserie — we scored big time with these 7th Inning Stretch cupcakes — Brown Butter Cake with Salted Caramel Buttercream and Peanut Crackerjack Crunch. Home run, hands down.
After the 7th Inning Stretch it was time to make one more lap around DOSE. Spotted: Janelle Gramling Designs adorable porcelain tabletop air planters
ACRE let us explore our inner storyteller. The works of art created at this DOSE are so good we just have to share — they’ll be on display at DOSE May 12!
The best thing about DOSE is that it’s all good! We appreciate that you make it your business to join us and our incredible Dosers every month.
Next DOSE we’ve got a whole new slew of Dosers ready to make mama proud — see you May 12!

In with a POP!
While we’ve still got a few more days to make it official, we bid adieu to cabin fever and welcomed Spring in style as our March 10 Dosers gave us plenty of ways to embrace the equinox:
Vintage Vine kept the Bloody Mary’s flowing all day long.

And all the while Doodlebooth doodled.
More happy smiles, the norm on DOSE day!
After stocking up on Underground Meats‘ award-winning charcuterie,
we got our daily dairy allowance topped up at Traders Point Creamery.
How could amyone resist Zak Rose‘s made-on-site side tables? Just the POP of color we’d been craving. (PS: You can still order them!)
Oh, and we debuted DOSE h2o!
Plus, these too-cute custom DOSE pops from Vintage Confections were just begging to be popped in your mouth.
And everyone got to take home a little fun from the Gilt Photo Booth.
It was a fantastic day for getting a perfect DOSE of food and fashion …
