Greetings!

It was so incredibly wonderful to see everyone at the holiday gathering. I had so much fun catching up with many of you. Thank you Eleanor for dragging me onto the dance floor!

While we were at East Hill Farm, Judi and Naomi brought out all the wrapping supplies and gave those who wanted to learn some instructions. I was so inspired, I went home and wrapped some gifts. I made them all real pretty just like the video showed... then I started thinking about how my husband and daughter might try to peek... and I started sealing off any potential pry holes... and next thing  you know, I'm back to needing a box cutter to open my gifts. I tried, I really did. Anyone know of a Sticky Tape Anonymous organization I could contact? Perhaps perfectly wrapped gifts just aren't for my house. My extended family and friends WILL however have sharply pressed corners, hidden double-sided sticky tape and elegant ribbons.
Happy Holidays!
~ Kelly

Happy Holidays from NHGSA!
THANK YOU FOR CELEBRATING WITH US AT EAST HILL FARM INN in the Monadnock Region. Watch for Naomi's blog article next week.

Bye Bye Birdie returns one to a simpler time in the ultimate feel-good musical, winner of four 1961 Tony Awards, including Best Musical. The plot revolves around rock 'n roll superstar Conrad Birdie (loosely based on Elvis Presley), who, to the dismay of his adoring fans, is about to be drafted into the army. But, comic complications ensue when as part of a publicity stunt cooked up by his agent, he promises to give a good-bye kiss to one lucky girl from Sweet Apple, Ohio on "The Ed Sullivan Show." The upbeat score features "Put On a Happy Face," "A Lot of Livin' To Do," and "One Last Kiss."
