Birthdays are a funny thing - some you want, some you don't, but it all comes down to the same thing, which is the passing of time. In this passing of time, hopefully you're enjoying the ride and have loved ones or good friends who accompany you long the path.
In the last few years, both Scott and I have been really bad friends. We've been so busy, always at the store or traveling to and from, to get together with people at night or on the weekends. We used to be good at sending out written greetings, too. In fact, I used to relish finding just the right card for whomever had the birthday! However, with time being such an issue anymore, we find that just the act of remembering to grab a card seems to be impossible. It's lucky we have the internet, or my friends probably wouldn't hear from us at all!
There are people very dear to us that consistently write us handwritten greetings (you know who you are), and Scott and I would like to publicly thank you. You've hung in there and sent us written greetings through the U.S. Mail without any reciprocation and we appreciate you deeply. To the many people who posted birthday greetings via Facebook, thank you as well. All of you are amazing people and we're glad to know you!
We'll be having some great events coming up at the store, starting this Saturday, when the authors and illustrator of the children's book The Chocolate Princess In The Land Of Plenty" will be here for a book signing. Be sure to mark your calendars for Saturday, May 4, at 1:00 pm, and come meet the local creators of this wonderful, inspirational book!
On Friday, the 10th of May, it's not only Fancy Food Truck Friday, but we'll be hosting Handsome Elliot Gold, who is not only the guru of teleconferencing, he is also the author of the book "Rememories". The book is a compilation of interviews with music industry luminaries, such as Bruce "Cousin Brucie" Morrow and Grace Slick, and has been called "a yin and yang of music and memories". He'll be reliving these memories and reliving rock and roll's heyday from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm - don't miss it!
That's it for now, friends, and as always, we thank you and hope you have a great week ahead! We'll go cut some birthday cake now - see you next week!
Lori and Scott
