Greetings!
Wow - so here we are... the craziest two or three months of the year for those of us in retail... Especially if you specialize in hand-crafted items!! Good thing that I had that nice break last month celebrating my 25th with my handsome hubby in Napa Valley!!!
A great big "Thank You" to all of you who sent "Congrats" and suggestions for restaraunts/wineries/hotels... It was all well appreciated and we had a GREAT TIME!!! I have tried to share a bit of that wonderful week with you here in this newsletter... I have included pics that I took throughout the week, new "Napa Valley" goodies to sell, a "Napa Valley" joke (courtesy of my dear Kansas City friend/customer, Fran!), "Napa Valley" glassware, and our monthly special even "gives a nod" to Napa!!
In this blessed month of giving thanks - I must remind all of you how thankful I am for your continued support in all that I do with Creations... Many of you were friends and family who became cherished customers; many of you were customers who have become cherished friends. I consider myself to be so very blessed on so many levels... and I give thanks for my many blessings, and offer prayers for those in need...
Happy Thanksgiving!
Cheers!

| California vinters in the Napa Valley area, which primarily produces Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir and Pinot Grigio wines, have developed a new hybrid grape that acts as an anti-diuretic. It is expected to reduce the number of trips older people have to make to the bathroom during the night.
The wine will be marketed as Pino More. |
