Black Friday



Today is the day the people traditionally line up like lemmings and begin their holiday shopping frenzy.  You can almost smell the rampant consumerism floating on the breeze this morning.  We'd like to take just a moment of  your time to remind you to SHOP LOCAL.  Think about it.  Every penny you spend in your community supporting local business' is a penny that will go to enriching the lives of your friends and family.  Why give you hard earned cash to some mega corporation in China or the Walton family?  They have enough, I promise.  Besides, something crafted and purchased locally is like giving two gifts...  You get to have something with character for your loved ones, and you get to help make sure that the people around you, who are all connected by that invisible spiderweb that is our community, can do the same.  Sounds like a no brainer to us.
