First Sign of Spring



Okay, so it's snowing again and the cold is starting to get depressing. But in the morning, if you listen closely, you will hear the male cardinal singing from a tree top. Or, in my case, from the peak of my roof.

And the days are getting longer. It's great to have daylight at 5:30 when leaving work! Pretty soon the crocus will be popping up through the snow and the Robins will be back.

Springs Brides are popping up as well. We participated in "An Affair to Remember " Bridal Show at the Lodge in Skaneateles. And we met some new vendors that we wanted to share with you.

The Village Candy Shoppe in Manlius (www.VillageCandyShoppe.com) and Woodmark Chocolate of Liverpool. (www.woodmarkchocolate.com) My husband and I had a great time meeting Kathy Chappini at her yummy store that is just brimming with unusual and hard to find chocolate and candy. After tasting Woodmark truffles, I had to call Paul Dederich and compliment him on the taste and quality of his candy. Next time I'm in Liverpool I will be sure to look for his store.

I would urge Brides and chocoholics to give them both a try.

Paul doesn't have a store...he works out of his garage.
