The winter holidays are upon us, just like that!
Winter Solstice is December 20, Hanukkah begins at sundown on December 21, Christmas and New Year's Day are, of course, on the 25th and 1st.
For me these holidays are a wonderful time to reflect upon the abundance of blessings in my life, even through the potential chaos of activity that surrounds them. This year these moments of reflection will be bittersweet as we must say farewell to our Lori.
Lori has met the love of her life and while this love is taking her from us geographically, we will hold her in our hearts and wish her only happiness.
Lori and Josh: may you always have everything that you need, and if your journey brings you back this way we will welcome you with open arms!

Meet the real Mrs. Claus!
Everyone knows the big man is super busy this time of year and he does not have time to come to the bakery. So instead we get some quality time with the Mrs.and believe me, this is an event for the whole family!
The magic of Christmas resides in Mrs. Claus and she shares that with us as she reads Christmas stories, leads us in carols, and spends a little bit of time with every child who wants to meet her.
Everyone gets a plate of bakery goodies and a cup of cocoa, tea, cider or coffee, plus there are always other fun surprises that make this unique afternoon a day to remember!
All children must be accompanied by an adult.
Recommended for well-behaved children ages 3 to 300.
