Giving Thanks

Here we are on the verge of another holiday season. Time and the seasons just zip by in a blink of the eye. It is appropriate that the season begin with a recognition of our gratitude for our lives. May I suggest making a list of all the things for which you are grateful as this will put you in the mindset of gratitude. When we are grateful we are also present, helpful and happy. Funny how this all works but it does. May I also suggest that this thanksgiving we try 2 new things: first find something locally grown that you may have at your thanksgiving table and secondly find just one thing you could volunteer to do for you community. Pick something that is for just one day to start, i am sure you can find something. This is a great way of thanking your community and supporting those who live there. So start with the gratitude "list" and with this in mind you can maybe move onto that Christmas list. Happy Holidays!!

As the sun journeys to the south

Well here we are at the first of November. Halloween has passed and may i say kudos to the Tisbury Business Association for its "Trick or Treat on Main Street" campaign as it was a huge success and much fun for those of us working yesterday. Thank you!! Since we turned our clocks back an hour last night we may look forward to the sun setting at 4:30 this "evening". Another winter is almost upon us but also coming are Thanksgiving and Christmas/Hanukka. We keep a holiday wish list book at the store so stop in and let your friends know what you REALLY want this year. Our Edgartown store has closed for the season. Thanks for all your support.
