Dear Richard,
|
Summer has ended and we've been sitting
on our porch watching the leaves change.
For Halloween we handed out candy to
over 350 kids. Being an artist's town,
both the kids and the parents were in
full costume. It was like a walking art
show.
Come, relax and get into the holiday
spirit with us! Checkout the first
annual Sweet Treats Cookie Tour below
and enjoy the special recipe we have for
you this month.

Our
Son's Wedding! |
Tom, the youngest of our three children,
was married in September to Jenny
vonParis. It was a lovely wedding in
Salisbury, Maryland.
Tom has been all smiles since they
announced their wedding and we
understand why. Jenny is a delight. Her
family is full of life and laughs and
Tom enjoys the love and camaraderie they
provide.
So, here's a toast to the happy couple.
