Lazy Days of Summer? Don't Think So!

What a crazy summer.

It's actually a bit of a blur.............

I guess what we'll remember most about it is the produce we started selling in front of the shop. It's a long, long story, but the end result was the addition of a farmer's market to our business.

It all started with a simple lemonade stand. George built it - I think he did a great job on it! 


Then we decided since we were setting up outside, we may as well add a few baked goods.....


And then came the garden produce.....



We did not grow it ourselves. We did have a garden, but it was nothing to brag about, let alone sell anything from. We actually bought the produce from the Amish, who have a way with gardening!

The garden produce is winding down with the approach of fall, but that means the pumpkins and gourds and corn shocks and Indian corn are in full swing!


In fact, they are taking over our shop! But that's ok, I LOVE fall!


Every summer is busy it seems. 
But this one has been our all time busiest. 
Fortunately, we did get a chance to relax before all the craziness started.


We spent a few days at the beach in June.

We are very tempted to do it again in September. 
Or October.
Or.....

Well, anytime sounds good!

Remind me to keep this blog updated. 
It has been suffering lately,
but we'll see if it can be brought back to the front burner.
