Memorial Day weekend starts at least three days before the main event in my estimation. The week leading up to Memorial Day is always filled with anticipation of a long weekend and quite a few folks capitalize on that extra day off by using their vacation time. The excitement of sun and sounds of ocean [...]

Join The Stillroom Gift & Tea Lounge tomorrow at St. Luke’s for the ‘Dig This’ event from 8-2! Why bother getting up, getting the kitchen messy and then cleaning up when you can just jump in the car (or walk) on a beautiful Saturday morning and come on over to the super pancake breakfast at [...]

The future’s not ours to see. Well, first let me say that the Third Annual Saxonburg Village Shops May Market this past weekend was fantastic! We saw many people come to town for this special shopping weekend and it was so much fun holding our “older than dirt” sale. That said, I think if I [...]

Are you from here? (May Market Dates Set for 2012)
Posted in General on March 11, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
I had a “local” woman in the shop a couple of weeks ago who asked me that age old Saxonburg question, “are you from here?” I so wanted to say “yes, I am”…but I know most often that means where were you born? I asked her “how long does one have to live in Saxonburg [...]
