Champaign, OH:  Your Manic Monday Reminder!


Yes, go ahead, cue the song, feel the Monday crazy that, for me, is lasting even into the evening.

Not sure what was up with today, but something was in the air…it was just one of those days that every time I turned around, there was one more odd roadblock, one more obstacle, and it all seemed to take forever to accomplish.

Then, other people were all telling me the same thing was happening for them.

So, goodbye manic Monday, and hoping for a Groovy Tuesday. In order to make that happen, I am placing my market order, tonight, because at 8am, tomorrow, we close for the week, and you don’t want to miss out on all of this terrific stuff the market has to offer!

AND…don’t forget…it’s your only week, until spring, to order your florals from Flourish, for a Valentine Day pick up!!!

Leave the maniac, and enter the groovy…and get those orders in!

XOXO,
Cosmic Pam

Foothills Market:  The Market is Open!


The sun is shining today in Foothills Market country, and it’s a little easier to believe spring is on its way!

Last week’s message talked about some of our offerings in sweet spreads, and we’re going to continue that thought this week. We have a new product on the market – Kumquat Marmalade.
