'Tis the season for a bit of cleaning

The one problem with the Renaissance Faires ending is that now we have to figure out where to put the leftover merchandise. I tell my "kids", if we have one left of everything on the shelf at the end of the final day, then we had just the right amoung of stuff. If we have two or more, then we obviously have too many. If we run out, then maybe we could have sold one more. And, whatever is left at the end of the final day, they have to pack down for me.

PA Renfaire did pretty good (thanks, Paddy!). But the MD Renfaire....

To give Ben some credit, it was his first time managing something this large and this busy on his own. Given that, he did a great job. Its just that we have many, many shelves full of candles, honeysticks, and candy come back.

Well, at least we won't have to make many candles for awhile! And, I hope to see the carpet soon. At least, I THINK we have a carpet.....

Upgrades to the website are almost complete!

We are upgrading our software to the newest version, which will hopefully make things run a bit more smoothly for our customers, and the admin should be easier. As part of the upgrade, we are moving to a new webhost, and have vowed to update the blog on a more regular basis!

Over the next several weeks, I would like to use this blog in part to answer common questions from our customers. Eventually, they will be incorporated in our FAQ, but a blog may be a more convenient method to comment on current topics, such as Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), or when we will be collecting honey from our bees.

If there is a future topic you would like us to include, please let us know either through this blog or via email!
