After Christmas Bargains


Dear Friends,

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas/Hanukkah with your families and are now enjoying your gifts.

We had a rather quiet Christmas this year. Our son and his family came over for Christmas eve and the baby (now 20 months) opened her presents. She is not quite old enough to know what all the fuss is about just yet. Next year will be a different story. She will understand and "Katie bar the door." From then on, it will be Christmas lists and all manner of begging and pleading for toys, etc.

They went to the other grandparents for Christmas Day so we had a very quiet day.

I am also writing this to let you know that I have put a Sale Items Page on the Dogwood Square website for all those items which are seasonal, discontinued, or retired. I have been holding on to them and selling them as folks requested them, but have decided to offer them all the time at discounted prices.

You will find old Claire Burke Fragrance Warmer Refills which have long been retired, also Claire Burke items in retired fragrances. There are Thymes items I still have left -- some retired some not, but all of them are in very limited quantities. As well as several other former items I have been holding on to for no apparent reason. I'm sure you will be able to find something you like or have been looking for, for a long time.

Well, it's time to wrap this up and wish each and every one of you a very Happy, Healthy, Prosperous and Safe New Year!

Until next time...

Roll Tide Roll!




Dear Friends,



Well, I have to do a little braggin'...after all, I do live in the State of Alabama. And even though I truly am a Tennessee Fan, and by the way, good bye to a great coach, Philip Fulmer.

Anyway, back to my adopted state...after a dismal decade or more, we finally have some pride back in the state. I guess all that money Alabama spent on Nick Saban has really paid off. Who would have ever guessed that in just two short years he would have turned the program around and crafted a team which went from position 26 at the beginning of the year to position 1 now for at least the last 4 weeks.

But the next game will really show what this Cinderella team is made of. Florida has worked its way to number 4 in the BCS and is a formidable opponent. If Alabama wins in the SEC Championship, they really deserve to be number 1.

So until next time...Roll Tide Roll!
