Summer Solstice Day...

I love the summertime. Today is Summer Solstice...the longest day of the year. It marks the end of spring and the beginning of summer. Since the shop is closed on Mondays, we're going to be celebrating it on Tuesday, June 22! Come join us tomorrow for a glass of lemonade and receive a bag of seashells with your purchase. We’ll be having an evening Knit-a-long and if it's not too hot outside, we'll take our chairs out and enjoy the evening together. We’ll also be having a drawing that day for a prize…a yarn kit from Lorna’s Laces. All you have to do is come by the shop and list 5 things that remind you of summer. That will enter you into the drawing and we’ll announce the winner on our website on Wednesday, June 23.

For me, the 5 things that remind me of summer are:

  • sitting at the beach watching the waves

  • catching fireflies at dusk with my kids

  • having a big glass of ice cold lemonade on a hot day

  • hearing the sound of the ice cream truck going down the street

  • stopping at produce stands along the road and getting some great fruits & vegetables

So be thinking about the 5 things that remind you of summer, and come join us tomorrow as we celebrate SUMMERTIME!!!
