The holidays are such a busy time for us retail wizards and on top of that, 3 of my 2 daughters are married with extended families. Trying to get us all together on Thanksgiving has become too much for all of us. So, I created 'Fake-Thanksgiving' and we hosted it on October 8th.
Imagine Thanksgiving without all the stress of who will be coming, who we have to wait for, who has to leave early, horrible traffic, etc. Please understand I love the holidays and have the fondest memories of them. However, my life and those around me seem to be well suited for this new tradition. And since our family and most families make their own traditions, it is a perfect fit.
For those of you who love shopping on Black Friday, I will be here bright and early to welcome you.
Back to heading to Kansas.....Going back home to Kansas is always fun. My fondest childhood memories are driving to Grandma and Grandpa's and watching for the bridge. Once we saw it....we knew we were there. My Dad lives in a very small Town called Peabody. My favorite stop there is an antique/eclectic shop called "Flint Hill Gypsies". Her shop is a very old grocery store with the antique ceilings, wood floors and front glass windows I dream my shop had. Stop by sometime and tell Morgan I sent you.
See you when I get back!
