Click Here: It’s Too Darn Hot! HooWhee it was hot. How hot was it, you ask? Well, we didn’t have any eggs to fry, but if you had rolled one of Tucquan’s peaches across the midway you might have ended up with peach cobbler when it got to the other side. That kind of hot. Hold UP! Did I say …
The Fathers of our Country

In Full Swing
Word is out, and the Lansdowne Farmers Market is once again the place to see and be seen on the Avenue. Be there or be square. Last Saturday was like Websters definition of a summer day…a beaut!

Let Us Give Thanks
Now that we’ve all adjusted to turning the clocks back and embracing the 5:30 dark…we all have, right?…we can finally relax into the cozy indoors…and the carb-loading. And, apparently, we needed a holiday to give us permission to invite the relatives…including the grumpy uncle…to eat too much, loosen belts and stumble to the comfy chairs. Most of us still call …
Final Daze
Well…we can’t say we didn’t know…but we can say we still weren’t ready for it…we never are. Never ready to trade in our shorts and flip flops for sweaters, long pants and sensible shoes.
