definitely encouraged to continue shopping the small businesses for your Christmas and Holiday treasures

As you stroll through the area, you may just want to burst into song. After all, “It’s beginning to look a lot like…”

“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas everywhere you go. Take a look in Winnie’s Wishes, and Mary Sue’s Cafe’s delicious, with cakes and pies and goodies all to go. A hat of bright red that fits snug to your head is the wish of Nancy and Lynne. A wig in a style that is sure to beguile is the hope for Janice and Jenn. And Gloria at Hats Hair ‘n Wigs will welcome you in.”

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, gifts in every store. A pretty sight to see is the fancy jewelry from the Estate Sale store.”
