Cook a Little, Laugh a Little, Read a Lot....                          December 2013
Dear Friends

Ahh, the celebration of lights - Happy Winter Solstice! This year the shortest day of the year might also be the warmest day of winter - well, that would probably be tomorrow! Either way, enjoy the warmth of your homes, the light of candles and the glow of family and friendship.  And we, as always, are grateful for your continued support and friendship.  Merry Christmas, and in case we don't get another newsletter out in time: Happy New Year!

Just a few days of shopping madness left - and we're having a great time here at the store! 
Free gift wrapping, FREE LOCAL DELIVERY (just ask), order online, call us or drop by - we're here to help you.  And of course, free Werthers (you're welcome).

As always,  Margot, Carolyn, Marina, Nicole, Marisela, Liane and Jeanne
